Structure, morphology, and magnetic properties of high-performance NiCuZn ferrite

doi:10.1088/1674-1056/24/12/127502

Abstract High-performance submicron-scaled NiCuZn ferrites are prepared by the solid-state reaction method through using CuO as additive. In the synthesis process, a mixture of superfine powder is sintered at 900 ℃ for 3 h, and the obtained product is NiZn-ferrite with spinel structure. We observe that the particle size increases with raising the sintering temperature. The NiCuZn ferrite with relatively uniform size and granular shape has the best performance: its coercivity is 14 Oe (1 Oe=79.5775 A·m^-1) and saturation magnetization is 48 emu/g. We also study the effects of particle size, magnetocrystalline anisotropy, and microstructure on coercivity. The method presented here is convenient and economical for producing the high-permeability ferrite powders.

Keywords: soft-magnetic properties size effect magnetocrystalline anisotropy
