Abstract

Magnesium ferrite (MgFe2O4) was prepared by simple low-cost oxalate coprecipitation method and characterized by XRD and SEM. The X-ray analysis confirmed the formation of a single-phase cubic spinel structure. The product revealed a non-uniform morphology and some certain extent of agglomeration. Crystallite size, texture coefficient, dislocation density, hopping length, and mechanical properties of the product are also reported.
