Abstract :
The Sr(Ba)Mn22+Fe163+O27 W-type hexagonal ferrites were prepared. These two compounds are ferrimagnetic. Their Curie temperatures are approximately 430 degrees C; at room temperature, their magnetizations and magnetic anisotropy fields are approximately 73 emu/g and approximately 12 kOe respectively. By neutron diffraction on the powder sample of SrMn2Fe16O27, the Mn location and the magnetic structure are determined: the Mn cations lie mainly in the tetrahedral sites of the S blocks and all the magnetic moments are along the hexagonal c axis. Permanent magnetic devices were prepared: the variations of the density, the remanence, and the coercive force as a function of the sintering temperature are given. The best values obtained are: Br=2500 G and HcJ=3000 Oe.
