Synthesis, Characterization and Properties of Ni–Cu–Zn NanoCompositE
Journal Title: International Journal of engineering Research and Applications - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 6
Abstract
This research article describes the magnetic properties of nano-composite composition as Ni0.75−2x Cu0.1+x Zn0.15+x Fe2O4 (0.01≤ x≤ 0.05), synthesized by a simple method using metal nitrates and citrate precursor method. X-ray Diffraction measurements (XRD) justified the formation of single-phase cubic spinel structure. The average crystallite size has been calculated using XRD pattern and the same is confirmed by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The nearly constant lattice parameters obtained with copper substitution is attributed to the small difference in the ionic radius between Ni2+ and Cu2+ ions. The effect of copper and zinc concentration on the magnetic properties is investigated using Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM). Through the magnetic measurements it can be observed that the entire preparation method increases the magnetic properties of the Nano-composite material. The NiCuZn Nano-composite with increased copper and zinc molar ratio are observed to have better magnetic properties compared to available NiCuZn Nanocomposite.
