Abstract
Results of an investigation of the magnetic properties of finely dispersed iron suspensions in toluene are presented. The dispersion of the iron was carried out using the electrical condensation method. The average diameter of the iron particles varied from 1.5 to 3.5 μm, depending on the operating conditions of the generator. The use of aluminum naphthenate as a suspension stabilizer makes it possible to ensure adequate stability of the system for an iron content by weight of from 0 to 3
