paramagnetic
Slightly drawn in
Paramagnetic describes materials that are weakly attracted to magnetic fields.
Unlike ferromagnetic materials like iron, which become strongly magnetized, paramagnetic substances—aluminum, platinum, oxygen—show only faint attraction and lose it when the field is removed.
The term appears in physics and chemistry contexts: paramagnetic resonance, paramagnetic properties of certain metals.
