Structure and Magnetic Properties of SrFe12O19/CoFe2O4 Nanocomposite Ferrite
Main Article Content
Abstract
Abstract: Nanocomposite particles SrFe12O19/ CoFe2O4 were synthesized by sol-gel method. The nanocomposites are formed at the calcining temperature around 850 oC in 5 hours. The phase composition, surface morphology and magnetic properties of the nanocomposites were investigated using XRD, SEM and VSM, respectively. The results show that the magnetic properties of nanocomposite particles are strongly influenced by the molar ratios of the hard and soft phases and particle size distributions. The samples with the mass ratio of Rm= SrFe12O19/ NiFe2O4 = 1/3 and 1/5 are characterized with a “bee waist” type hysteresis loop. While all the samples RV show an excellent smooth hysteresis loop and a single – phase magnetization behavior. The coercivity decreases significantly and the magnetization drastically increases with decreasing of volume ratio RV.
Keywords: nanocomposite, sol- gel method, exchange coupling.
