The effect of reaction temperature on the structural and magnetic properties of nano CoFe2O4
2017
Abstract Nano cobalt ferrites (CoFe 2 O 4 ) were co-precipitated at various reaction temperatures (60, 70 and 80 °C) for 1 h. The reaction temperature greatly influenced the crystallite size and the magnetic behaviours of the nano CoFe 2 O 4 . The mean crystallite size ranged from 9 to 15 nm with the increase in the reaction temperature and the intensity of metal oxide vibrations at 568–550 cm −1 were also inclined. The synthesized samples were in the stoichiometric ratio of 1:2 (Co:Fe) with roughly spherical morphology. The synthesized cobalt nanoferrites exhibited ferromagnetism at room temperature and 5 K, and the saturation magnetization increased from 6.4 to 20 emu/g with the crystallite size.
