Research in Mn-Zn ferrites have been growing in recent years, mainly because of the properties in high frequency application such as high saturation magnetization, low core losses, which are sensitive to the structure, processing conditions, such as sintering temperature, time and atmosphere. This study aims to evaluate the microstructure and magnetic characteristics Mn0.65Zn0.35Fe2O4ferrite sintered in N2atmosphere and to microwave energy at 1200°C/2h. The samples were compacted by uniaxial pressing at 200 MPa and sintered in a microwave oven with a heating rate of 50°C/min and sintering time of 30 min. For samples sintered in N2atmosphere was used heating rate of 5°C/min with sintering time of 2 hours. The samples were characterized by apparent and bulk density, XRD, SEM and magnetic measurements. The results indicate the formation single phase of Mn-Zn ferrite for sample sintering in N2atmosphere, and to sintering by microwave oven observed the phase ferrite Mn-Zn with trace of secondary phase hematite. The density and saturation magnetization were 3.14 and 3.12 g/cm3, 5 and 83 emug-1for the samples sintered by microwave energy and N2atmosphere respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
