Resumo
The nanoscience and nanotechnology exhibited an outstanding development, which have been caused by the unusual properties featured by materials in the nanometric regime. Because of this, many magnetic materials with sizes smaller than before have been studied; among these materials, the ferrites have been extensively researched in new applications as drug carriers and ferrofluid components. In this work cobalt magnesium mixed ferrites, Co1-xMgxFe2O4 where 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.6, were synthesized by the forced hydrolysis method, which involves the hydrolysis of precursor salts mixed in a organic medium under mild heating. The structural characterization of the obtained materials was done by X-Ray Diffraction (DRX) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (MET); beyond these, the materials were characterized by Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Thermogravimetry (TG) and Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA). The magnetic characterization was done in a Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM), in applied fields varying from -2 to +2 Tesla and at 273, 323 and 373 K temperatures, and in a Physical Properties Measuring System (PPMS) operating in a temperature range of 4 to 300 K. The synthesized materials featured the characteristic spinel structure from ferrites, low crystallinity and average crystallite diameter below 5 nm. The presence of organic residues from the synthetic step was detected and quantified in the samples; beyond this, an increase of crystallinity of the material was observed when this is thermally treated. Using the room temperature and above room temperature magnetization curves of the samples, the superparamagnetic behavior was detected and confirmed. The saturation magnetization of the samples at room temperature were 260.29, 237.42, 198,27, 191.25 e 161.49 emu/cm3 to the samples with x =0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.5 e 0.6, respectively; then, the substitution of Co2+ with Mg2+ caused the decrease of saturation magnetization of the synthesized samples. The samples Blocking Temperature (TB) were obtained of the Zero Field Cooling (ZFC) and Field Cooling (FC) curves, and, with those values, the Effective Anisotropy Constants (Kef) of each sample were calculated; the obtained values were 196 K and 1.41 x 107 ergs/cm3 to the x = 0 sample; 178 K and 1.28 x 107 ergs/cm3 to the x = 0.2 sample; 172 K and

1.24 x 107 ergs/cm3 to the x = 0.4 sample; 172 K and 1.24 x 107 ergs/cm3 to the x = 0.5 sample and 146 K and 1.05 x 107 ergs/cm3 to the x = 0.6 sample. The trend featured by the obtained TB and Kef values was directly associated with the Ms trend. A comparison of the Anisotropy Constants between the x = 0 sample, a bulk and a 8.5 nm diameter cobalt ferrite were also done; among these, the x = 0 sample featured a higher value of Kef, therefore, the x = 0 sample anisotropy energy seems to be composed by superficial and interparticle magnetic effects contributions besides the magnetocrystalline energy contribution.
