Cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4) is a well-known hard magnetic material with high coercivity and moderate magnetization. These properties, along with their great physical and chemical stability, make CoFe2O4 suitable for many applications such as generator, audio, video-tape etc. In this study, the magnetic properties of cobalt ferrite synthesized via the mechanical alloying using α-Fe2O3 of Hot Strip Mill (HSM) waste and cobalt carbonate as the precursors have been investigated. Structural and magnetic properties were systematically investigated. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern exhibited the single phase of cobalt ferrite when the sintering temperature was 1000 °C. Permagraph measurements of the sintered sample revealed a saturation magnetization (Ms) of 77-83 emu/g and coercivity (Hc) of 575 Oe which closely to the magnetic properties of references; Ms = 47.2-56.7 emu/g and Hc =233-2002 Oe. |
