Abstract

Abstract A reactor comprising an annular iron core constituting a closed magnetic path and a conductor wound on the iron core. The iron core is formed of particles of iron or an iron-based magnetic material. Each particle is covered with an insulative oxide film which contains 0.3 to 0.8% of oxygen by weight based on the particle.
