Cobalt ferrite nanoparticles have been synthesized by the sol-gel method. The prepared sample was sintered at four different temperatures (300 °C, 400 °C, 500 °C and 700 °C) for four hours. The structural characterizations of all the prepared samples were done using XRD, TEM and FTIR. Crystallite size was found to increase with sintering temperature and this can be attributed to the grain growth of the particles. The particle size of each sample was determined using TEM. The FTIR spectra show two strong absorption bands in the range of 1000–400 cm-1, characteristic of spinel ferrites. The room temperature magnetic measurements showed a strong influence of sintering temperature on saturation magnetization and coercivity.
Keywords: sol gel, ferrites, sintering temperature, magnetic properties.

I really enjoy examining on this website , it has great blog posts. “Those who complain most are most to be complained of.” by Matthew Henry.
It is appropriate time to make some plans for the longer term and it is time to be happy. I’ve read this put up and if I could I desire to suggest you few attention-grabbing things or advice. Perhaps you can write subsequent articles regarding this article. I desire to read more things approximately it!
