The effects of the molar ratio of added salt and calcination temperature on the characteristics of the products were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and Brunauer, Emmett and Teller (BET) surface area analysis. Results showed that the introduction of leachable inert inorganic salt as a hard agglomeration inhibitor in the mixture precursor led to the formation of high dispersive CoFe2O4 nanoparticles; and the increase in specific surface area from 28.28 to 73.97 m^2/g, and the saturation magnetization is 84.6 emu/g.展开更多

The crystal structure and morphology of the samples were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The gas sensing properties of the samples were also investigated. The results reveal that the Ag, as amorphous structure, can efficiently prevent the reuniting and growing-up of nanosized NiFe2O4 grains, and 1.5% Ag modified NiFe2O4 sensor has a better sensitivity, up to 43, for acetone gas than 1.5%Ag mixed NiFe2O4 sensor prepared by low-temperature solid-state reaction, at an optimal working voltage of 4.5 V. The quick response time (1 s) and fast recovery time (~10 s) are the main characteristics of this sensor.展开更多
