Abstract

MnZn ferrites with different composition have been synthesized by soft chemistry routes using oxalate precursors with the partial replacement of water by acetone as the solvent. Toroids were sintered at 1250 °C for 3 h in O2/N2 atmosphere. Sintering conditions significantly changed macroscopic characteristics as density and initial permeability for different composition. Variation of the complex permeability with frequency have been measured over a wide range of frequency, up to 1.8 GHz where dispersion is attributed to spin resonance. No additives for increasing densification were employed. Samples exhibit the highest permeability values for Mn0.8Zn0.2Fe2O4. An anomalous effect is observed when copper is added to MnZn ferrites. The initial permeability (μi) values do not exhibit much variation with temperature, except near Tc where it falls sharply. Curie point and magnetic losses are related with composition.
