The investigations into ferromagnetic resonance and magnetic susceptibility of nanocrystalline TiB2, TiC, and B4C powders (Ti-B-C system) doped to AISI 316L austenitic steel with different amounts (3 vol.%, 5 vol.% and 7 vol.%) have been carried out. The ferromagnetic resonance spectra were recorded in the temperature range from helium up to room temperature. The three tested composite samples contain a number of magnetic phases in different proportions. They reveal a structure originating from several different complex magnetic centers. The composites revealed such magnetic phenomena as paramagnetism, (anti)ferromagnetism, and superparamagnetism. Magnetic susceptibility investigations supported the ferromagnetic resonance studies and their analysis. Magnetic properties of the TiB2, TiC, B4C powders doped to AISI steel may play important role in further possible applications of these composite systems.
