They are used in telephone andradio transformers and telephone relays. An alloy typical of thisregion is the one containing 45 per cent of nickel.

From the data givenon this curve, the material exhibits an initial permeability of 2000 anda maximum permeability of 16,000. Another alloy in this region is the one containing 50 per cent ofnickel which has been investigated by Yensen. He has applied thename Hypernik ^ to it. Yensen, by giving this material a specialheat treatment, obtained an initial permeability of 4000 and maximumpermeability of 70,000. MAGNETIC MATERIALS IN RELATION TO STRUCTURE 17 Arnold and Elmen ^^ have investigated in great detail the alloys inthe region of 70 to 80 per cent nickel. These alloys are used whereextremely high initial permeability is required. One especially in-teresting use is in the loading of submarine telegraph cable. An alloytypical of this region is the one containing per cent of
