Magnetic characteristics of MgFe2O4 nanoparticles obtained by glycine–nitrate synthesis

详细

The magnetic properties of magnesium–iron spinel (MgFe₂O₄) powdered nanoparticles obtained by glycine–nitrate synthesis are investigated by X-ray phase analysis and the NMR method. According to the results of X-ray phase analysis, the average size of the crystalline part of nanoparticles of the powder under investigation is 45 ± 4 nm. Magnetization J is determined using the formula J = (B/μ0)–H, where B and H are the induction and strength of the magnetic field in the sample, which are measured by the NMR method. The magnetic characteristics of MgFe₂O₄ are as follows: specific saturation magnetization J_sat = 17.52 A m²/kg, specific residual magnetization J_r = 5.73 A m2/kg, coercive force H_c = 4600 A/m, and magnetic moment P_sat = 371 × 10^–20 A m² in the magnetic saturation state and P_r = 121 × 10^–20 A m² in the residual magnetization state.
