Abstract
Origin of the intrinsic coercivity field variations observed by hysteretic measurements established by Nikolic et al. was investigated in detail by ZFC/FC measurements. In this study, magnetic behavior of the samples is further examined by calculation of the ZFC \({{M}_{n}}(T)\) and \({{M}_{n}}(H)\) first derivatives. Performed study showed that the main contribution to the measured coercivity comes from the ε-Fe2O3 particles, characterized by \(Hci = 24~\;{\text{kOe}}\), although both samples posses \({\text{SPM}}\) ε-Fe2O3 fraction. As a result, Hci values of the samples are differed dependent on the quantity of the SPM ε-Fe2O3 particles in the sample. Mechanism of the intrisic coercivity field variations is discussed.
