Nanostructured NiZn ferrites were synthesized using two different techniques: first, a precipitation procedure in the reverse micelles of a CTAB/1-hexanol/H2O microemulsion, and second, precipitation in a bulk aqueous solution. XRD measurements, magnetic measurements, TEM imaging, analytical measurements and thermal analyses were used in an attempt to reveal the chemical pathway that leads to the formation of NiZn ferrite in the microemulsion and in the bulk aqueous solution. It was found that reverse micelles do not act as inert nano-sized reactors that influence only morphological properties of the synthesized powders, but have a decisive influence on the identity of …
