Abstract
M-type strontium hexaferrites with chemical composition of Sr0.80−xCaxLa0.20Fe11.85Co0.15O19 (x=0−0.15) were prepared by the ceramic process. The samples were sintered at temperatures of 1175, 1185 and 1195 °C for 2 h in air. Effects of the substituted amount x of Ca2+ on the ferrites microstructure and magnetic properties have been investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and B–H hysteresis curve measurements. As a result, at x≤0.12, all samples are single phase after the Ca substitution. At x=0.15, another phase of hematite (α-Fe2O3) is present. In addition, the maximum values of the remanence (Br) and maximum energy product ((BH)max) for the magnets have been obtained at x=0.08 for sintering temperature=1185 °C. The maximum value of the intrinsic coercive force (Hcj) for the magnets has been obtained at x=0.12 when the magnets were sintered at 1185 °C.
