Magnetism	Magnetic Property Description
Anti-ferromagnetic	Phenomenon in some magnetically ordered materials in which there is an anti-parallel alignment of spins in two interpenetrating structures so that there is no overall bulk spontaneous magnetization.
Ferromagnetic	Strongly attracted to a magnet. Phenomenon in some magnetically ordered materials in which there is a bulk magnetic moment and the magnetization is large.
Magnetic	Noticeably attracted to a magnet.
Magnetic after heating	Attracted to a magnet after heating the sample.
Moderately Magnetic	Noticeably attracted to a magnet.
Naturally strong	Strongly attracted to a magnet.
Naturally weak	Weakly attracted to a magnet.
Nonmagnetic	Not attracted to a magnet.
Paramagnetic	Weakly attracted to very strong magnetic fields.
Slightly magnetic	Weakly attracted to a magnet.
Strongly magnetic	Strongly attracted to a magnet.
Weakly magnetic	Weakly attracted to a magnet.
Weakly paramagnetic	Weakly attracted to very strong magnetic fields.
