In the present work, mixed manganese-copper ferrite of composition Mn x Cu 1-x Fe 2 O 4 (within x=0. 40, 0.42, 0.44, 0.46, 0.48 and 0.50) have been investigated for their electric and magnetic properties such as dc resistivity, Curie temperature, saturation magnetization. Mn x Cu 1-x Fe 2 O 4 ferrite samples were prepared by uniaxial pressing from the oxide mixture, synthesized at 1000°C during 45 hours and finally heated to 1200°C by 5h, at room atmosphere. The X-ray diffractograms show that the samples with different compositions were formed by compact structure spinel with cubic cell. The saturated magnetization of the Mn x Cu 1-x Fe 2 O 4 ferrites increased with x up to 0.46, which presented the smallest coercitive field. All samples showed hysteresis characteristic of soft magnetic materials. This electrical behavior is compatible with an insulator. The results were analyzed in the framework of grain/barrier model.
