Single-phase barium ferrite powder was synthesized using the sol-gel method. At this time, an attempt was made to find the optimal experimental conditions for the production of single-phase barium ferrite by varying the Fe to Ba molar ratio (Fe/Ba) and the heat treatment temperature. In addition, cobalt-substituted barium ferrite particles were prepared using cobalt, which has an excellent effect on coercivity control for the production of ferrite fine particles having a coercivity of 2.5 to 5.5 kOe for use in high-density magnetic recording media. The changes in the magnetic properties of these were investigated. X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric-differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) were used to observe the synthesis of single-phase, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDS) were used to analyze the chemical structure and composition. The coercivity of the cobalt-substituted barium ferrite powder was measured by vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM). As a result, single-phase Barium ferrites were synthesized when the Fe/Ba molar ratio was 10, and the heat treatment temperature was 900 ℃. The coercivity decreased with increasing the amount of Co added. Barium ferrite, having a coercivity of 2.5 to 5.5 kOe for use in high-density magnetic recording media, was synthesized when the Co to Fe(Co/Fe) molar ratio was less than 0.16.

Barium ferrite particles were synthesized from Ba(NO$_3$)$_2$, Fe(NO$_3$)$_3$ and KOH mixed solutions using hydrothermal crystallization in supercritical water. The experimental apparatus for production of barium ferrite is a flow-type apparatus. Fine barium ferrite particles were produced because supercritical water causes the metal hydroxides to be rapidly dehydrated before significant growth takes place. The effects of Fe/Ba ratio and reaction time on the formation, particle size, and magnetic properties of barium ferrite were studied. When Fe/Ba ratio were varied from 0.5 to 12, single-phase barium ferrite powder was only produced in the range of 0.5〈Fe/Ba〈2. Also, with elevating reaction time, the BaO.6Fe$_2$O$_3$ particle size grew smaller. Especially, uniform barium hexaferrite particles of size 100-200nm were obtained at 80sec. In this study, therefore, single-phase barium ferrite particles are highly stable and can be produced continuously in a reaction time of less then 2min.

Barium ferrite powders were synthesized by the coprecipitation method using iron-pickling waste acid (IPWA) and BaCl$_2$$.$2H$_2$O as raw materials. Fe$\^$2+/ ions in the IPWA, which contains both Fe$\^$2+/ and Fe$\^$3+/ ions, were oxidized into Fe$\^$3+/ ions using H$_2$O$_2$. Proper amount of BaCl$_2$$.$2H$_2$O was dissolved into the oxidized IPWA. Using NaOH, Ba$\^$2+/ and Fe$\^$3+/ ions were coprecipitated as Ba(OH)$_2$and Fe(OH)$_3$. The coprecipitated Ba(OH)$_2$and Fe(OH)$_3$were washed and dried. Barium ferrite powders were obtained by calcining the dried Ba(OH)$_2$and Fe(OH)$_3$mixture from 400$\^{C}$ to 1000$\^{C}$ with a 100$\^{C}$ interval. Barium ferrite powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction, SEM, and VSM. It was found that barium ferrite powders could be synthesized at around 630$\^{C}$. The synthesized barium ferrite powders showed hexagonal plate shapes with a fairly uniform size. The barium ferrite powder calcined at 900$\^{C}$ showed good magnetic properties, saturation magnetization of 67emu/g and maximum coercivity of 5000 Oe.

Those were investigated, the crystallographic, morphological, and magnetic properties of barium ferrite film (SiO2/Si substrate) prepared by sol-gel dip coating. Appropriate sol was prepared by dissolvin barium and iron nitrate in ethylene glycol at 80$^{\circ}C$. To obtain the films, thermally oxidized p-type silicon substrate with (111) of crystallographic orientation were dipped into the sol, dried at 250$^{\circ}C$ to remove organic material, and heated at 800$^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours in air for the crystallization of barium ferrite. It was found that the particles of barium ferrite formed on the substrate exhibited needle-like shape placing parallel to the substrate and its c-axis is long axis direction. There was tendency that the coercive force in horizontal direction to the substrate was higher than that in vertical direction to it. This tendency was profound in large thickness.

Hexagonal $\delta$-FeOOH was coated with Ba-Sol, which was produced by hydrolizing Ba(OC2H5)2, Ba-Sol coated $\delta$-FeOOH spread on a stainless plate, dried at 8$0^{\circ}C$ and then heat-treated. In this way, Ba-ferrite fine particles were produced. although there was a difference in a degree of hydrolysis of Ba(OC2H5)2, crystalline phase of Ba-ferrite appeared around 617$^{\circ}C$, and Ba-ferrite single phase was obtained after heat treatment at 80$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr. When Ba-ferrite was made from Ba-Sol coated $\delta$-FeOOH, $\delta$-FeOOH was thermally decomposed to $\alpha$-Fe2O3 at $700^{\circ}C$, producing a porous structure which was observed by TEM photographs. But the porous structure was not observed at 80$0^{\circ}C$. Ba-ferrite, heat-treated at 80$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr, had mean particle size of 1000$\AA$, lattice parameter of a0=5.889243 $\AA$ and c0=23.214502 $\AA$, a saturation magnetization ($\sigma$8) of 45.3 emu/g and a coercive force (Hc) of 5200Oe.

Acicular $\alpha-FeOOH\; and\; Ba(OH)_2\cdot8H_2O$ are starting materials in this study. This paper presents the characteristics of the contents of citric acid and heating condition for preparing acicular barium ferrite powder. They control particle shape, crystalline phase, magnetic properties of acicular barium ferrite powder So the effects of the contents of citric acid and heating condition are studied. The experimental condition for starting materials were 800~1000$\circ C$ in firing and 0~40 wt% citric acid, respectively, Ba-ferrite particles fired at the range of 800 $\circ C$to 900 $\circ C$ were maintained as acicular particle shape, but there were mixed particles of acicular and round shape after fired at 950 $\circ C$. Ba-ferrite powder of the single phase was obtained in firing at 900~1000$\circ C$ and with 20 wt.% citric acid. There were unreacted phase of $\alpha-Fe_2O_3 \;and \; BaFe_2O_4$ phases as a second phase in case of sintering at below 850 $\circ C$. Acicular barium ferrite powder of single phase was also produced in firing at 900 $\circ C$ with 20 wt.% citric acid. The saturation magnetization of single phase of acicular $BaFe_12O_19$powder was about 51 emu/g and coercivity was about 4200 Oe.
