Trends of parallel microstructure and magnetic properties evolution in Co0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4

The present paper reports on an effort to expose and scientifically explain the microstructure–magnetic properties relationship as they evolve with increasing sintering temperature. Mechanical alloying was used to prepare cobalt–zinc ferrite nanoparticles with sintering temperature from 800 to 1,350...
