Typical Solid State and Wet Chemistry Methods to Prepare Nano-Sized Nickel Ferrite Particles

Abstract

Different ways to prepare nanosized nickel ferrite particles have been developed. Typical solid state reaction routes including high temperature sintering, mechanical alloying, self-propagating high temperature synthesis and wet chemistry methods including co-precipitation, sol-gel, hydrothermal synthesis are briefly reviewed and compared by focusing on the particle size control.
