Abstract
In this study, the effect of temperature on the hydrothermal synthesis of single-phase SrFe12O19 hexaferrite (SrM) was investigated. For this synthesis, annealing or calcination process was applied. The Fe/Ba molar ratio was taken as 8:1. In this study, single-phase SrM NPs were synthesized via hydrothermal method. XRD patterns showed the presence of the hard (SrM) phase in the samples treated at 200 and 220 C-a similar to. Besides, formation of hexagonal plate-like samples was observed in SEM micrographs. Despite the low magnetization and coercive field values, the presence of the SrM phase was also shown in magnetization measurements. A reduced magnetization was explained by the existence of SrCO3 and Fe2O3 phases, and a high shape anisotropy is probably the reason of low coercivity.
