Hi

You are very fortunate to be looking at a core from Micrometals.  They have fantastic design tools, e.g.:  https://www.micrometals.com/design-and-applications/design-tools/inductor-analyzer/

Using this tool, you can figure out the loss, and more importantly the temperature rise of your proposed core.  

You will need to know some details of your operating mode: topology, frequency, voltage, current, wire characteristics, etc, etc.  

Hope this helps.
