InfluencesofDopantsonMicrostructureandMagneticPropertiesof(Mg0.476Mn0.448Zn0.007)(Fe1.997Ti0.002)O4Ferrites

Influences of addition of CaO, CoO and V2O5 on the microstructure and magnetic properties of (Mg0.476Mn0.448Zn0.007)(Fe1.997Ti0.002)O4 ferrites were investigated. The powders of (Mg0.476Mn0.448Zn0.007) (Fe1.997Ti0.002)O4 composition were prepared by using a conventional ceramic powder processing technique. The experimental results showed that the average grain size of the sintered ferrites codoped with 0.03wt% CaO, 0.04wt% CoO and 0.06wt% V2O5 was about 15 μm; the saturation magnetization of ferrites was 68.78 emu/g. The addition of V2O5 in the ferrites can not only increase value of the saturation magnetization, but also decrease the average grain size of (Mg0.476Mn0.448Zn0.007)(Fe1.997Ti0.002)O4 ferrites. Simultaneous incorporation of CoO, CaO and V2O5 dopants into (Mg0.476Mn0.448Zn0.007)(Fe1.997Ti0.002)O4 ferrites can not only improve the saturation magnetization of the materials, but also inhibit abnormal grain growth.
