    Abstract

    Milling BaFe12O19 powder in air for 500 h results in decomposition of the barium ferrite structure and formation of nanocrystalline hematite and BaO. Addition of 20 or 40% wt. α-Fe to the pre-milled material followed by a further 150 h milling in vacuum, results in the formation of nanocrystalline multiphase mixtures. Comparison of the effects of static annealing at 1000°C for 2 h with time-dependent annealing (10-50 min) at 800°C of the milled (α-Fe + BaFe12O19) products, reveals the formation of a mixture of ultrafine defect Fe1-xO and α-Fe phases in the short term treatments.
