During this study, we report the green synthesis of  magnetic copper ferrite nanoparticles using tragacanth gum as a reducing and stabilizing agent by the sol-gel method. The green synthesized CuFe2O4 MNPs are characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and scanning electron microscopy...

Co-Zn ferrite and BaM ferrite films were deposited on silicon wafer disks with thermally oxidized surface layer without annealing process, and their readlwrite characteristics in contact mode have been investigated by using a MIG and Mn-Zn ferrite head with gap length of 0.2-0.4 pm. The highest linear recording density D50 of Co-Zn ferrite and Ba ferrite films were 105 and 190 WRPI, respectivel...

The reaction mechanism for conversion of MnO nanoparticles to Mn-ferrite nanoparticles was studied, which involved sequential consumption of MnO and the growth of ferrite. The method could be applied to other ferrite nanoparticles including cobalt ferrite.

High strength steels Q690+Q550 were welded using three different welding wires without preheating by gas shielded arc welding process. Microstructural characteristics of weld metals and nucleation mechanism of acicular ferrite were investigated by means of scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive spectrum (EDS) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The straight Y-groove test ...
