Abstract:Nanocrystalline Mn0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 ferrite was successfully synthesized by ball milling a powder mixture of MnO, ZnO, and Fe2O3 under argon and oxygen atmospheres. The effects of the milling time, milling atmosphere, and annealing temperature on the milled powders were examined. X-ray diffractometry (XRD), scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy were used to evaluate the powder particle structure. The XRD results indicated that after 20 h of ball milling the MnO–ZnO–Fe2O3 powder reacted… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
