The Influence of Si Additive on Structural and Microstructural Properties of Cu-Zn Ferrite System

Mixed Cu-Zn ferrites (for x = 0.66 to 0.99) are prepared by the double sintering ceramic method. Locally available low cost Fe_2O_3 with 0.5wt% of Si additive is used for this purpose which reduced the process price markedly and improves the properties of the ferrite produced. The chemical phase analysis carried out by X-ray powder diffraction method confirms the major phase of Cu-Zn ferrite structure. Lattice parameters, X-ray density and mass density along with porosity have been investigated to study the effect of composition. Lattice parameters shows a decreasing trend with increasing Cu content, x. whereas, both X-ray density and mass density increases with increasing x, which in turn decreases the porosity due to successive presence of Si in Fe_2O_3. This decrease in porosity along with chemical homogeneities, distribution of phases and grain formation were also observed from Scanning electron micrographs at different magnifications.
