Stoichiometric nanocrystalline nickel–zinc ferrites were synthesized by a reverse micelle method following a multi-microemulsion approach. Different pH values were chosen for the alkali precipitating reaction during the synthesis of different powders. Synthesized, as-dried and subsequently calcined powders were characterized in terms of their magnetic properties. XRD analyses and specific-surface area measurements were used to determine the average particle sizes of the synthesized samples. DCS and TGA measurements were performed to reveal the phase transitions within the samples at elevated temperatures, whereas TEM was used to view and record the microstructure of the nanosized ferrite samples. A possible mechanism of the …

Nanostructured NiZn-ferrites were synthesized using a low-temperature co-precipitation method within the reverse micelles of ternary CTAB/1-hexanol/water microemulsions. The influence of pH on the precipitation reaction was investigated. It was found that a higher pH resulted in more crystalline particles. Subsequent oxidation of the ferrous ions precipitate, which leads to the formation of spinel ferrites, is discussed. Diffraction-lines broadening and specific surface area measurements yielded an average particle size of ~ 3 nm. The saturation magnetization of the samples was 20 times smaller than for traditionally synthesized NiZn-ferrites, while the coercivities were 10 - 100 times larger than bulk NiZn-ferrites, which …
