MAGMENT magnetizable concretes are based on a cement matrix loaded with magnetizable particles. They can reach high permeabilities opening up a broad range of electromagnetic applications: wireless power transmission, induction cooking and inductive components. One main advantage is full integrability into concrete structures with high robustness and stability to environmental influences.
