Abstract

In this work, the effects of SrCO3 and Fe2O3 particle size on the reaction process, morphology and magnetic properties of M-type strontium hexaferrites (SrM) have been further studied. Pure strontium hexaferrite magnetic sample based on SrCO3 and Fe2O3 molar ratio of 1:6 has been successfully prepared at 1150 °C. The results indicated that Fe2O3 particle size was the main factor of affecting the formation of SrM, a pure SrM phase magnetic sample was able to obtain at lower calcination temperatures by using fine Fe2O3 powder as raw material, and at the same calcination temperature, a sample using fine Fe2O3 powder as raw material was able to obtain pure SrM phase magnetic sample with shorter holding time. When the mean particle size of Fe2O3 was below 60 nm, a pure SrM phase magnetic sample was able to form at 1150 °C at a molar ratio of 1:6 of SrCO3 and Fe2O3. In this case, the magnetic parameters of the sample with the optimum magnetic parameters were saturation magnetization MS = 77.8 emu/g and coercive force HC = 4122 Oe. And the solid-state reaction process of the corresponding samples was slightly faster when the mean particle size ratio of Fe2O3 and SrCO3 was between 0.35 and 0.36. Assuming that a SrCO3 particle is surrounded by Fe2O3 particles, it can be inferred that the corresponding molar ratio of Fe and Sr of the nearest raw material particles is between 3.6 and 3.8.
