This work was dedicated to the preparation of a barium hexaferrite using the glass crystallization method. The glass flakes were treated at temperatures ranging between 550C and 750°C. The investigation carried out by X-ray diffraction revealed the phase composition and the mean crystallite size. By means of the scanning electron microscopy, the crystallite shape and average size were established. The electric and magnetic properties were investigated at room temperature by means of a Solartron 1260A impedance/gain phase analyzer and a vibrating sample magnetometer. The optimum heat treatment was established to obtain the maximum coercivity of the barium hexaferrite.
The utilization of classical ceramic technology for ferrite preparation permits to obtain strontium hexaferrite with big crystals, of micrometer size, with a smaller coercive force than the hexaferrite with submicron crystals. In this work the strontium hexaferrite was obtained with submicron crystals, by hot reduction of the hexaferrite obtained through ceramic technology in CO atmosphere, followed by the thermal re-oxidization in air. The effects of treatment in CO atmosphere and of the re-calcination treatment on the magnetic and electric properties of the strontium hexaferrite were investigated.
