Samarium–dysprosium–magnesium ferrite materials have been prepared by chemical combustion method. The effect of samarium–dysprosium rare earth ions on loss factor, real and imaginary part of permeability has been studied for Mg[(Sm)0.6(Dy)0.4]xFe2−xO4 (x = 0.01 and x = 0.03) ferrite materials with temperature and frequency by using a Hioki LCR‐Q meter. From thermal variation of loss factor of prepared ferrite materials, it is revealed that ferrite must be used below Curie temperature for low loss factor. The real part of initial permeability initially increases with frequency and for higher frequency its value almost remains constant. The loss factor and an imaginary part of permeability of the ferrite materials decreases with increasing frequency.

The ferrite samples having composition Mg[(Sm)0.5(Dy)0.5]xFe2‐xO4, in which x varies from 0.05 to 0.3 in steps of 0.05 have been prepared by using combustion method. X‐ray diffraction analysis confirmed the formation of cubic spinel structure in addition of ortho‐ferrite phase due to substitution of rare earth ions. The initial permeability and complex permeability of toroid samples are calculated by measuring the values of inductance and Q‐factor. It is seen that initial permeability and real part of initial permeability increases with increase in Samarium(Sm)–Dysprosium (Dy) rare earth element in magnetium (Mg) up to x = 0.15 and thereafter it decreases. The composition Mg[(Sm)0.5(Dy)0.5]0.15Fe1.85O4 show low loss factor and initial permeability becomes higher as compared to other prepared rare earth content samples.
