Abstract
Highly uniform submicrometre size particles of hexagonal strontium ferrite (SrFe12O19) have been synthesized by chemical coprecipitation technique at pH ⋍ 13. Chemical coprecipitation technique has helped in bringing down the ferritization temperature from 1300 to 925° C which is revealed by DTA-TG and XRD studies. Reproducible uniform single domain particle size and its distribution has been observed by scanning electron microscopy. X-ray and Mossbauer studies have identified single phase ferrite with Fe3+ ions occupying the proper crystallographic sites. The performance parameters of the sintered isotropic strontium ferrite magnets have proved to be superior by about 20% over the ferrites prepared by conventional ceramic technique.
