Abstract

We suggest a new approach to synthesis of nano nickel ferrites via combustion synthesis in electric and microwave ovens. The oxidation of organic compounds, decomposition of salts, and their degradation were explored by TGA–DTA. As-prepared nanopowders were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction. Structures of both ferrites were slightly different. Detailed material parameters such as crystallite size (D), lattice constant (a), micro strain (ε), X-ray density (ΔX), dislocation density (ρX), hopping lengths (LA and LB), bond lengths (A–O and B–O), ionic radii (rA and rB), texture coefficient [TC(hkl)], and mechanical properties were measured and comparatively analyzed.
