Abstract

Co and Zn ferrites with general formula CO1-XZnXFe2O4 (x = 0; 0,2 and 0,8) were synthesized by combustion reaction method, using urea as fuel. The structure of inverse-spinel-type ferrite were characterized through XRD using Rietveld refinement method to identify, quantify phases and determine lattice parameters. The crystallites had mean size of 37,33 nm, 43,66 nm and 51.88 nm with the increment of Zn2+, respectively. Samples were sintered in a resistive oven at 900 °C for 3 hours. Analysis by SEM indicated that the particles have irregular sizes and high concentration of open pores. The magnetic properties were measured using a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), through which a decrease in the magnetization variation was observed as the non-magnetic Zn2+ concentration increases. The permittivity and loss tangent were determined using vector network analyzer equipment, permittivity increases with the increase of zinc concentration and the tangent loss measurements were small for all ferrites synthesized in this work.
