Effect of Cr Substitution on Magnetic Properties of Mg Nanoferrites Synthesized by Citrate‐Gel Auto Combustion Method

Abstract

A series of Mg-Cr nanoferrites with the chemical formula MgCr Fe 2− O 4 (0.0 ≤ ≤ 1.0) were synthesized by Citrate-Gel auto combustion method. The formation of single phase cubic spinel structure of the samples was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. It is observed that with the increase in the paramagnetic Cr content, the particle size of the ferrite compositions has decreased from 23 nm to 7 nm. Faraday magnetic Susceptibility Balance was used to measure the Magnetic susceptibility of synthesized samples that confirmed the paramagnetic nature of the ferrites. Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM) was used to measure the Magnetic properties of nanoferrites under investigation at room temperature under the applied magnetic field of 15 kOe. With the increase in Cr 3+ concentration, the saturation magnetization has decreased from 11 emu/g to 1.5 emu/g.

Effect of Cu2+ substitution on structure, morphology, and magnetic properties of Mg-Zn spinel ferrite

“…The lattice constant is increasing gradually with Cu content due to the larger ionic radius of the Cu 2+ (0.70 Å) than that of the Mg 2+ (0.65 Å) as shown in Figure 2 and agrees with previous literature (22) . The crystallite size of the synthesized Cu doped Mg-Zn ferrite powders was evaluated with the help of Debye-Scherrer's relation (23) ,…”

Tailoring the super-paramagnetic nature of MgFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles by In 3+ incorporation

“…low M s fulfils the criteria of achieving the zero H c , enhancing the superparamagnetic nature thereby making them suitable for application in transformers, inductor cores, recording heads, microwave devices, magnetic shielding etc. [37].…”

Adsorptive removal of pollutants from water using magnesium ferrite nanoadsorbent: a promising future material for water purification

“…Although research data showed that magnesium ferrite and its modified forms were paramagnetic (Raghasudha et al 2013), superparamagnetic (Verma et al 2004a, b;Liu et al 2007;Sasaki et al 2010;Sepahvand and Mohamadzade 2011;Chandradass et al 2012;Sheykhan et al 2012; (Ichiyanagi et al 2007;Maensiri et al 2009;Bamzai et al 2014;Manikandan et al 2014;Samiei et al 2018;Uyanga et al 2020), most of them showed superparamagnetic behavior. The S-shaped magnetization curve as shown in Fig.…”
