Abstract
The use of V2O5 as a liquid phase sintering aid for BaFe12O19 is studied. Three weight % of V2O5 is added to a BaFe12O19 powder, samples are sintered at temperatures between 900-1250 °C and the effects of sintering aid addition on densification, microstructure, phase purity and magnetic properties are examined. Compared to BaFe12O19 without sintering aid addition, addition of 3 wt% V2O5 leads to a moderate improvement in densification behavior. Samples with 3 wt% V2O5 addition contain considerable amounts of Fe2O3 and Ba3(VO4)2 second phases. The BaFe12O19 sample without sintering aid addition has a Magnetization-Field
hysteresis loop typical of a hard ferrimagnetic material, whereas the 97 wt% BaFe12O19 - 3 wt% V2O5 sample has a hysteresis loop with reduced saturation magnetization and coercivity.
