Magnetization, also known as magnetic polarization, is a vector quantity that gives the measure of the density of permanent or induced dipole moment in a given magnetic material.
There are six basic categories of magnetization: (1) diamagnetism
(2) paramagnetism
(3) ferromagnetism
(4) antiferromagnetism
(5) ferri-magnetism
(6) superparamagnetism.
These categories are important to know as different magnetic materials show different behaviour when placed in magnetic field ,so we choose a given magnetic material according to need only after knowing their magnetic properties which matches with any of the above given categories.
