Barium hexaferrite (BaFe12O19) has dominated many aspects of technology, serving as a permanent magnet, magnetoelectric, multiferroic, and electric motors, generators, microwave devices, and drug delivery systems. There is a challenge in the synthesis of BaFe12O19 with the coprecipitation method. As a result, research is conducted to examine the factors influencing the properties of BaFe12O19 during the preparation process, specifically on the drying temperature of the mixture. The precursors were precipitated, through some procedural steps, along with stirring at 450 rpm at a certain temperature for a while and simultaneously pouring the precipitant dropwise; the sample was dried at different temperatures. The final samples were annealed at the same rate of temperature within the same time interval. The results depicted that drying at different temperatures leads to the variation in the magnetic and microstructural properties of BaFe12O19, indicating that drying at high temperatures resulted in high coercivity with low saturated magnetization.
