Abstract
A series of Ni–Co substituted barium strontium hexaferrite materials, Ba0.5Sr0.5Ni x Co x Fe12–2x O19 (x = 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 mol%) was synthesized by the sol–gel method. X-ray diffraction analysis has shown that the Ni–Co substitutions maintain in a single hexagonal magnetoplumbite phase. The room temperature magnetic properties and the cation site preferences of Ni–Co substituted ferrite were investigated by VSM. Substitutions led to decrease in coercivity while saturation magnetization remains the almost same. It indicates that the saturation magnetization (52.81–59.8 Am2/kg) and coercivity (69.83–804.97 Oe) of barium strontium hexaferrite samples can be varied over a very wide range by an appropriate amount of Ni–Co doping contents.
