Soft-Hard Ferrite Composites by Green Synthesis: Structural and Magnetic Properties

Mg-Co-Zn Soft ferrite and Ba-Sr hard ferrite composites were prepared by employing the green synthesis technique, in which lemon extract was used as a chelating agent in the reaction. Structural, morphological, and magnetic properties of the composites were studied. The prepared composites were analyzed with X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) techniques. The prepared composite samples showed significant changes in the structural and magnetic properties depending on the weight percentage of the constituent phases, thereby providing valuable insights into their potential technological applications.
