Abstract
Nanoparticles of Sn–Mg substituted strontium hexaferrite with the composition of SrFe 12− x (Sn 0.5 Mg 0.5) x O 19 ( x = 0.0–1.0) were synthesized by chemical coprecipitation method. Deionized water/ethanol (50/50) was used as the solvent. The single phase strontium hexaferrites were obtained at pH 13 and Fe 3+/Sr 2+ molar ratio of 9 after calcination at 800 °C. The mean particle size of samples was decreased from 82 to 56 nm with increasing the Sn–Mg content from x = 0.0 to x = 0.8. The effect of Sn–Mg substitution on magnetic properties of hexaferrites was studied using vibrating-sample magnetometer. It was found that increasing the Sn–Mg from x = 0.0 to x = 0.8 reduced the coercivity from 4728.9 to 1455.5 Oe and increased the saturation magnetization from 51.34 to 65.49 emu/g. A vector network analyzer was used to investigate the microwave absorption properties. According to microwave measurements, doped strontium hexaferrite composites had much more effective electromagnetic absorption properties than undoped strontium hexaferrite composite.
