Anyone using Sendust (Fe,Si,Al) to absorb stray EMI?


Sendust is a magnetic metal powder that was invented by Hakaru Masumoto at Tohoku Imperial University in Sendai, Japan, about 1936 as an alternative to permalloy in inductor applications for telephone networks. Sendust composition is typically 85% iron, 9% silicon and 6% aluminum.

Molex and Oyaide make tape and sheets with varying thickness to control stray EMI.

I have used the Oyaide Sendust sheets with power distribution builds. I find it works best with power distribution. 
I would enjoy hearing others experiences.

No, but I tried to order one A4 sheet from Mouser. It was going to cost $145 delivered to Australia, so I cancelled the order.

At that price, I hope it’s good! It does sound interesting...
