Abstract
The effects of milling SrFe12O19 in air and vacuum for 800 h have been investigated by X-ray diffraction and Mossbauer effect spectroscopy m easurements. Different levels of structural disorder along with partia l decomposition of SrFe12O19 to nanocrystalline grains of haematite, a lpha-Fe2O3, and magnetite, Fe3O4, are obtained for the air and vacuum milling. Superparamagnetic relaxation effects due to the fine particle s produced on milling are observed for a significant fraction (similar to 10% air milled, similar to 30% vacuum milled) of the milled sample s.
