Effect of heating temperature on structural and magnetic properties of zinc ferrite nanoparticles synthesized for the first time in presence of Moroccan reagents

In this study, nanoparticles of ZnFe2O4 were prepared at low temperatures by the coprecipitation method and for the first time using non-standard Moroccan reagents. The formation of Zinc Ferrite was confirmed by structural characterization techniques XRD and FTIR. From XRD data, the pure ZnFe2O4 phase was obtained at low temperatures (400 and 500 °C), with a cubic spinel structure (space group Fd3m). In addition, from Rietveld analysis the...
