diamagnetic material| Material that is weakly repelled by a magnet. All substances are diamagnetic but the behaviour is often masked by stronger forms of magnetism such as paramagnetic or ferromagnetic behaviour. |
| Diamagnetism is caused by changes in the orbits of electrons in the substance induced by the applied field. Diamagnetic materials have a small negative magnetic susceptibility. |
