ferromagnetic
Magnetic poles always occur in pairs of north and southit is not possible to isolate north and south poles. All magnetism is created by electric current. Ferromagnetic materials, such as iron, are those that exhibit strong magnetic effects. The atoms in ferromagnetic materials act like small magnets due to currents within the atoms and can be aligned, usually in millimeter-sized regions called domains. Domains can grow and align on a larger scale, producing permanent magnets. Such a material is magnetized, or induced to be magnetic. Above a materials Curie temperature, thermal agitation destroys the alignment of atoms, and ferromagnetism disappears. Electromagnets employ electric currents to make magnetic fields, often aided by induced fields in ferromagnetic materials.
