Abstract
Ultrafine substituted M-type Sr-ferrite Sr(TiMn)2Fe8O19 powders were synthesized successfully by co-precipitation method.
The hydroxide precursor particles were formed in gel solution containing ethanol and water at a ratio of 1:1 and NaOH as
coprecipitation agent. The effects of preheat treatment on particle size and c/a value of Sr(TiMn)2Fe8O19 nano powders were
studied using XRD and SEM. XRD analysis indicated single phase substituted M-type Sr-ferrite Sr(TiMn)2Fe8O19 were
formed with and without preheat treatment. The particle sizes of the powders were very small with and without preheat
treatments. Calculation of c/a value with XRD data indicated that the Ti-Mn substitution and preheat treatment induced
notable change of the atomic lattice anisotropy.
