Conclusions
-
1.
Even a very small addition of V2O5 to a Ni-Zn ferrite with a slight excess of iron helps to increase the density of the material during sintering, but has no effect upon the formation of spinel phase.
-
2.
V2O5 promotes the densification of such a ferrite during sintering by increasing the concentration of ionic defects of equilibrium in the material, i.e., by intensifying the volume diffusion of atoms and vacancies.
-
3.
The addition of V2O5 appears to have no significant effect upon the sintering of a Ni-Zn ferrite with a deficiency of Fe2O3 (< 50 mol.%), which means that, in the absence of cationic vacancies, the influence exerted by V2O5 on the sinterability of Ni-Zn ferrites cannot be linked solely with its acting as a flux.
