Effect of Te and MoO
3 on the grain structure and electromagnetic properties of Mn-Zn-Mg-ferrites have been studied.
(1) High permeability materials were obtained when sintered in two steps. With Te or MoO
3 added, the first step was performed in air at 1350°C for 1 hour, and the second, in nitrogen at 1150°CC for 3 hours.
(2) Uniformly, grained matrix was obtained by Te or MoO
3, the addition of Te inhibitied grain growth, whereas MoO
3 promoted.
(3) Lattice constant was increased by Te but not significantly by MoO
3, which could be explained by the high solubility of Te in ferrites.
(4) Sintered density decreased markedly with the increasing To or MoO
3.
(5) Electrical resistivity increased considerably up to 0.5% addition of Te.
