Abstract
Co3O4 powder was added to barium hexaferrite by powder metallurgy process to determine its effect on the magnetic properties. The variation of the addition of Co3O4 are 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, and 5.0 wt%. Characterization and magnetic testing included density calculation, Permagraph test, and XRD were performed in order to elucidate the effect of Co3O4 addition to its structure and magnetic properties of barium hexaferrite. The magnetic density obtained was in the ranges of 3.2 - 4.35 g/cm3. From the permagraph test, it is found that the value of remanence (Br) was in between 1.18 and 1.5 kG. The value of coercivity (Hc) was in the range of 0.594 - 3.366 kOe, and the maximum product energy (BHmax) was found to be in between 0.07 and 0.48 MGOe. From the XRD analysis, it was found that two types of barium hexaferrite were formed, namely barium hexaferrite type M(BaFe12O19) and X(Ba2Fe30O46). It is concluded that the addition of the Co3O4 compound increased the value of magnetic density and decreased magnetic properties.
