Abstract
Ultrafine copper ferrite CuFe2O4 and also CuFe2O4/rGO and CuFe2O4/Carbon composite materials were obtained using hydrothermal method. The effect of carbon component presence and thermal treatment in a range of 573–773 K on the phase state, morphology, and magnetic properties of the composite materials was analyzed. XRD, Mossbauer spectroscopy, low temperature nitrogen adsorption, and SEM method were used. The evolution of pore size distribution for synthesized samples at the increasing of annealing temperature was traced. The influence of carbon component on the hyperfine interaction parameters of CuFe2O4/rGO and CuFe2O4/Carbon composites was analyzed.
