Abstract
$(Ni_{1-x-y}Zn_xCu_y)Fe_2O_4(x=0.45,\;0{\leq}y{\leq}0.3)$ was synthesized by conventional ceramic processing, and the sintering behavior and the magnetic properties of which were studied as functions of CuO content and sintering temperature. Both the densification and the grain growth rates were significantly enhanced with the increase of CuO content, while abnormal grain growth occurred when the samples of $y{\geq}0.2$ were sintered above $950^{\circ}C$. Saturation magnetization and coercive field were mainly influenced by the densification and grain growth of the specimens, respectively.
