Description

Using X-ray powder diffractions, Mössbauer spectroscopy, and magnetic measurements, the effect of dopants (Co2++Si4+) on the fine structure and magnetic properties of M-type barium hexaferrite prepared by hydroxide and carbonate precipitations has been studied. It has been shown that the magnetic properties of M-type barium hexaferrite can be controlled by heterovalent substitution 2Fe3+→So2++Si4+. - Highlights: ► In the range x=0–0.3, homogeneous solid solutions BaFe12−2xCoxSixO19±γ are formed. ► Only Fe3+ions in the high-spin state present in the homogeneous region. ► So2+, Si4+ ions prefer to occupy crystallographic positions 12k, 4f1 respectively. ► Substitution 2Fe3+→So2++Si4+ decreases particle size and coercivity.
