The structural property, bulk density and porosity of V₂O₅ (0.0, 0.4, 0.8 and 1.2 wt.%) added Li-Zn ferrites are
observed along with the surface morphology. The samples have been prepared by the solid-state reaction technique
and sintered at 1050 ^oC. The X-ray diffraction patterns of the prepared samples have shown the single
phase cubic spinel structure. A microstructural study demonstrates that the grain size increases up to 0.8 wt.%
V2O5 and slightly decreased thereafter for 1.2 wt.% V₂O₅ addition. The saturation magnetization value
increases from 44.0 to 50.3 emu/g as the V2O5 content increases up to 0.8 wt.%. The decrease of magnetization
for 1.2 wt.% V2O5 content is apparent and it is found to be 47.3 emu/g. This may be related to the dilution effect
with the excess of non-magnetic V2O5. It is also observed that the value of initial permeability increases up to
0.8 wt.% V₂O₅.
