Abstract

Perovskite and spinels oxides have received renewed attention due to the possibility of combining both structures in di-phase composites to obtain multifunctional materials. In this work, barium titanate (perovskite)-cobalt ferrite (spinel) composite powders with different microstructures were obtained from thermal treatment of amorphous precursors at 500–1100°C. The precursors were prepared by combining coprecipitation and sol–gel routes. Lyophilization of ferrite prior to mixing was used as a strategy to control interphase reaction. Mössbauer spectroscopy showed that the dispersion of coprecipitated ferrite in a viscous BaTiO3 precursor gel resulted in superparamagnetic behavior and reduction of the local magnetic field of site [B].
