State They are solid. They can be solid, liquid or gas. They can be solid, liquid or gas.
Effect of Magnet Strongly attracted by a magnet. Weakly attracted by a magnet. Weakly repelled by a magnet.
Behavior under non-uniform field tend to move from low to high field region. tend to move from low to high field region. tend to move from high to low region.
Behavior under external field They preserve the magnetic properties after the external field is removed. They do not preserve the magnetic properties once the external field is removed. They do not preserve the magnetic properties once the external field is removed.
Effect of Temperature Above curie point, it becomes a paramagnetic. With the rise of temperature, it becomes a diamagnetic. No effect.
Permeability Very high Little greater than unity Little less than unity
Susceptibility Very high and positive Little greater than unity and positive Little less than unity and negative
