Cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4) nanoparticles were successfully synthesized by a sol-gel combustion technique. The particle size as determined by a transmission electron microscope was about 25 nm. A maximum saturation magnetization of 22.31 emu/g and a coercivity of 118 Oe were achieved for the samples. T...
