A magnetic material includes magnetic particles. When a magnetic particle is rotated by 360/n degrees (n is an any integer equal to or greater than 2) around a gravity center position of the particle in a planar region, an area of the particle after the rotation overlaps with an area of the particle before the rotation by 90% or more. In the planar region, gravity center positions of from nine to eleven particles are present on a band portion in a rectangular shape. For the particles in the planar region, when a number-based 50% cumulative frequency distribution of maximum lengths in a direction passing through respective gravity center positions is defined as α, a 10% cumulative frequency distribution is equal to or greater than 0.9α, and a 90% cumulative frequency distribution is equal to or less than 1.1α. A surface of the particle is covered with an insulating film.

In some embodiments, a coating applied to steel reinforcement bar (e.g., steel rebar) that could considerably extend the lifetime of concrete structures by reducing steel rebar corrosion is disclosed. The coating includes a thin, passivating steel (e.g., stainless steel) layer that is applied to the outside of conventional steel rebar. The coating can be applied in-line through metal cold spray manufacturing, which is a high throughput coating technique that can be integrated into existing steel manufacturing plants. Furthermore, a novel, high performance ferritic steel with tailored resistance to corrosion from chlorides is described. The new ferritic steel is distinct from other commercial and experimental steels, and is better suited for coating low-cost steel structures like rebar. Multiple alloying elements including Cr, Al, and Si will each form protective oxides independently, increasing the total amount of protection and extending it over much wider ranges of pH and electrical potential.
