The MnZn ferrite material is still the soft magnetic ferrite material with the largest production quantity and the most extensive application, wherein the high-frequency power ferrite material and the high-permeability material have the greatest development prospect.
In order to obtain a ferrite material having excellent soft magnetic properties, a great deal of research has been conducted on ferrite materials in the prior art. The prior art proposes a method for preparing manganese zinc ferrite, which proposes a method for preparing manganese zinc ferrite using two ball milling processes, but such a method has at least the following disadvantages: 1. the method uses the traditional components to prepare the manganese-zinc ferrite, the traditional components limit the limit performance of the manganese-zinc ferrite, and the fact proves that the mechanical property of the ferrite of the traditional components is poor; 2. ball milling is carried out in the air atmosphere, so that a large amount of oxygen is adsorbed in the powder, and the oxygen reacts with the powder under the action of high temperature in the sintering process, so that the chemical components of a finished product deviate from the designed values, and the magnetic performance of the finished product is not ideal; 3. the particle size of the powder is not limited, so that a large amount of mechanical energy of ball milling is used for refining the particle size of the powder, and the aim of fully mixing the powder cannot be achieved; 4. the sintering process temperature is too low, hot-pressing sintering is not adopted, so that the structure of a finished product is not compact, the crystal grain structure is disordered, and the phenomenon of poor magnetic performance is reflected finally.
The information disclosed in this background section is only for enhancement of understanding of the general background of the invention and should not be taken as an acknowledgement or any form of suggestion that this information forms the prior art already known to a person skilled in the art.
