In this work, a single phase strontium ferrite sample was mechanically milled for 60 h. It has been found that the crystallite size reduced by 85%. A dramatic drop (from 4500 to 1600 Oe) in the coercive filed was also observed. The observed reduction in the coercivity was attributed to the reduction of the single domain particle size.

Hysteresis curves were calculated according the Stoner-Wohlfarth (SW) model using values of K2/K1from zero up to 0.25 (where K2is the 2ndorder anisotropy constant and where K1is the 1storder anisotropy constant). The SW calculations assume Nd2Fe14B nanocrystalline magnets with single domain particle size (grain diameter less than 150 nm). The effect of K2on several index of merit of magnets as BHmaxand squareness are discussed. As a general result, increasing K2, the intrinsic coercivity increases. However, the increase of K2almost does not improve the BHmaxof isotropic magnets. It is found that the effect of the K2/K1ratio is coupled with the effect of texture, i.e., the effect of K2is more significant for pronounced texture.

The applicability of micromagnetics for phases with high magnetocrystalline anisotropy as barium ferrite Ba2Fe12O19and Nd2Fe14B is discussed. The Stoner-Wohlfarth model is very suitable for such phases, and also for PtFe and PtCo. It was discussed how to take into account the total energy of the system for grain size above the single domain particle size. For this situation of large grain size, the net magnetostatic energy of the system cannot be neglected. From energy considerations, it follows that the coercive force should decrease with the inverse of the square root of the grain size.
