Abstract
An homogeneous BaO ·Fe2O3 ·B2O3 glass containing 30% Fe2O3 is prepared by a splat-cooling technique. X-ray and electron diffraction reveal the product to be amorphous at room temperature. The crystallization, as shown by DTA studies, begins at 750 K, and up to 950 K, a temperature at which BaFe12O19 is shown to be present, the crystallizing products are mainly evolutive.
The magnetic measurements show a probably mictomagnetic behaviour at low temperature with a maximum of magnetic susceptibility at 12 (±1) K. At higher temperature the susceptibility obeys a Curie-Weiss law with large negative Weiss constant and low Curie constant per Fe3+ ions. After crystallization the product is ferrimagnetic and could be used as a permanent magnet.
Mössbauer study reveals that the glass mainly consists of Fe3+ ions in distorted sites and a hyperfine structure at low temperature; the magnetic ordering temperature is estimated to be about 44 (±1) K.
