Low sintering temperature MnZn-ferrites for power applications in the frequency region of 400 kHz

In this paper, the effect of cubic zinc metaborate Zn₄O(BO₂)₆ on the sintering of MnZn-ferrites for medium frequency power applications is investigated. Zinc metaborate is synthesized in the laboratory using zinc oxide and boric acid as metal precursors. As observed, when zinc metaborate is added to the MnZn-ferrites at an optimum amount of 0.02 wt%, it significantly enhances densification and therefore allows, for a given density, reduction of the firing temperature by almost 200 °C. MnZn-ferrites exhibiting power losses of 70 mW/cm³ (measured at a frequency of 400 kHz, magnetic field 50 mT and temperature of 90 °C) are synthesized from conventionally milled powders with average particle diameter 0.6 μm, compacted and fired at 1100 °C. Identical experiments conducted under the same conditions on specimens without zinc metaborate additions revealed power losses greater than 300 mW/cm³, because of insufficient densification.     

Effect of manganese addition on physical properties of Co0.6Zn0.4MnxFe2-xO4 system

X-ray analysis and magnetic properties have been studied for the system Co_0.6Zn_0.4Mn_xFe_2-xO₄. The bulk density, X-ray density and porosity were also studied. It was found that the lattice constant decreased with increasing manganese concentration x. The X-ray density, the bulk density and porosity do depend on the manganese content. The magnetic susceptibility and the activation energies were found to be increased with increasing percentage of the manganese ions while the dc conductivity decreased.     

DC conductivity for NixMg1–xFe2O4 ferrites

The DC electrical conductivity was studied as a function of both composition and temperature for the ferrite system Ni_xMg_1–xFe₂O₄ prepared by the usual ceramic technique. The experimental results proved that, the DC electrical conductivity increases as the temperature increases and as the nickel ion content and porosity decrease. The Curie temperature and the activation energies for electrical conduction increase as the nickel ion content increases.     

Spectral studies of Co substituted Ni-Zn ferrites

The spinel ferrites Zn_0.35Ni_0.65−xCo_xFe₂O₄, 0≤x≤1, have been prepared using the standard ceramic technique. Room temperature Mössbauer, X-ray and infrared IR spectra were used for carrying out this study. X-ray patterns reveal that all the samples have single-phase cubic spinel structure. The Mössbauer spectra of the samples show a paramagnetic phase for x=0 and a six-line magnetic pattern and a central paramagnetic phase for x≥0.1. They are analyzed and attributed to two magnetic subpatterns and two quadrupole doublets due to Fe³⁺ ions at the tetrahedral A-sites and octahedral B-sites. Four absorption bands are observed in IR spectra. They confirm the spinel structure of the samples and existence of Fe³⁺ ions in the sample sublattices. The deduced hyperfine interactions, lattice parameters, absorption band positions and intensities and force constant are found to be dependent on the substitution factor x, where the cation distribution is estimated. The hyperfine magnetic fields, magnetization and lattice resonant frequency are found to be dependent on the interionic distance.     

Magnetic disaccommodation in Sr hexagonal ferrites with X-phase (2SrO·15Fe2O3) initial composition

The relaxation of the initial permeability has been measured in polycrystalline Sr hexaferrites with the initial composition of X-phase (2SrO·15Fe₂O₃) in the temperature range between 80 and 500 K. The time decay of the initial permeability after sample demagnetization is represented by means of isochronal disaccommodation curves which show the presence of different disaccommodation processes whose maxima lie at 380, 300 and 160 K (resp. A, B and D peaks). This behaviour is explained regarding the spectra corresponding to barium ferrites in order to ascribe the different relaxation processes found for ionic transitions in the cationic sites within the hexagonal structure.
