Effect of pH of the Reaction Mediumon the Structure and Properties of Spinel-Type Ferrite Nanopowder

Abstract

In this work using sol-gel auto-combustion synthesis was synthesised single-phase magnesium-substituted lithium ferrite at different pH reaction medium. The synthesized materials were investigated by X-ray and Mossbauer methods. It was shown that the pH of the reaction medium plays a crucial role in the formation of the mi-crostructure and properties of synthesized systems. Keywords: spinel, ferrite, combustion synthesis, microstructure.
