What Does IHC Stand For?

IHC stands for Intrinsic Coercivity

Intrinsic Coercivity (IHC) refers to the inherent ability of a magnetic material to withstand demagnetization after being magnetized. It is a critical parameter in understanding the magnetic properties of materials, particularly in applications involving permanent magnets and magnetic storage devices. IHC indicates the amount of external magnetic field needed to reduce the magnetization of a material to zero, reflecting its stability and performance in various environmental conditions.
