USE OF DUST X-RAY DIFFRACTION IN THE CHARACTERIZATION OF PEROVSKITAS TYPE FERRITES
The X-ray diffraction is one experimental method very important on characterization solids compounds. In the case of polycrystalline samples, the x-ray powder diffraction allows for the identification of the solid phase and the characterization of structural changes. The present paper was prepared any antiferromagnetic ceramic phases, bicalcic ferrite derivate (Ca2Fe2O5) by solid state reaction from pulverized reagents and mixed manually. These were heated in the Pt melting pan, in air oven at temperature between 1000 and 1450oC for 12h. The occurrence of reaction with reagents and the products obtained were identified and structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction by polycrystalline sample. Mixtures of regents CaCO3, SrCO3, BaCO3, Fe2O3, Nb2O5, Have been made with various symmetries: a) Ba2Fe2O5, b) CaBaFe2O5, c) Ba2FeNbO6, d) Ca2Fe2O5, (e) Ba2Nb2O7, (f) Ca2Nb2O7, (g) Sr2Nb2O7, (h) CaBaFeNbO6. The products obtained showed that O2 of the air participated of reactions by providing the anions oxides required for obtaining the cubic phase. The formation of this phase was also helped by the presence of barium and niobium, since in the absence of these elements, can be seen the formation of orthorhombic phase, characteristic of Ca2Fe2O5.
