Abstract

The solution combustion of spinel type FeCr₂O₄ nanopowders via different ratios of fuel to stating metal nitrates was investigated. The synthesized FeCr₂O₄ nanopowders were deemed to be single phase spinel type material based on powder X-ray diffraction, FTIR and EDS studies. The properties of synthesized FeCr₂O₄ nanopowders such as morphology, porosity, elemental composition, crystallite size, strain and lattice deformations, magnetic moment, and coercivity were influenced by the amount of the fuel used in the combustion process. FeCr₂O₄ nanopowders with different morphologies, porosities, structural, and magnetic properties could be prepared in a single procedure on a hotplate magnetic stirrer without the need for high temperature furnaces.
