NiZn-ferrites were synthesized from the waste catalysts. which were by product of styrene monomer process and buried underground as an industrial wastes, and their magnetic properties were investigated. Nickel oxide and zinc oxide powders were mixed with finely ground waste catalysts, and spinel type ferrite was obtained by calcination at 900℃ and sintering at 1325℃ for 5 hours. The initial permeabilities were measured and reflection losses were calculated from S-parameters for the composition of Ni/sub x/Zn/sub 1-x/Fe₂O₄(x=0.36, 0.50, 0.66) and (Ni/sub 0.5/Zn/sub 0.5)/sub 1-y/Fe/sub 2+y/O₄(y=-0.02, 0, 0.02).

The mixed ferrite $Ni_{x}Co_{1-x}Fe_{2}O_{4}$ have been investigated by X-ray and $M\"{o}ssbauer$ spectoscpy. From the results of X-ray diffraction measurement the structure for this system is spinel, and the lattice constant is in accord with Vegard's law. $M\"{o}ssbauer$ spectra of $Ni_{x}Co_{1-x}Fe_{2}O_{4}$ have been taken at various temperature ranging from 13 to 800 K. The isomer shifts indicate that the valence states of the irons at both A(tetrahedral) and B(octahedral) sithe are found to be in ferric high-spin states. The variation of magnetic hyperfine fields at the A and B sites are explained on the basis on A-B and B-B supertransferred hyperfine interactions. It is found that Debye temperatures for the A and B sites of $CoFe_{2}O_{4}$ and $NiFe_{2}O_{4}$ are found to be ${\theta}_{A}=734{\pm}5K,\;{\theta}_{B}=248{\pm}5K,\;and\;{\theta}_{A}=378{\pm}5K,\;{\theta}_{B}=357{\pm}5K$, respectively. Atomic migration of $Ni_{0.3}Co_{0.7}Fe_{2}O_{4}$ starts near 450 K and increases rapidly with increasing temperature to such a degree that 61 % of the ferric ions at the A site have moved over to the B site by 700 K.

A typical ferritic/martensitic (F/M) steel sheet was subjected to pulsed laser surface remelting (LSR) and corrosion test in lead-bismuth eutectic (LBE) at 550 ℃. There present two modification zones with distinct microstructures in the LSRed specimen: (1) remelted zone (RZ) consisting of both bulk δ-ferrite grains and martensitic plates and (2) heat-affected zone (HAZ) below the RZ, mainly composed of martensitic plates and high-density precipitates. Martensitic transformation occurs in both the RZ and the HAZ with the Kurdjumov-Sachs and Nishiyama-Wassermann orientation relationships followed concurrently, resulting in scattered orientations and specific misorientation characteristics. Hardnesses of the RZ and the HAZ are 364 ± 7 HV and 451 ± 15 HV, respectively, considerably higher than that of the matrix (267 ± 3 HV). In oxygen-saturated and oxygen-depleted LBE, thicknesses of oxide layers developed on both the as-received and the LSRed specimens increase with prolonging corrosion time (oxide layers always thinner under the oxygen-depleted condition). The corrosion resistance of the LSRed F/M steel in oxygen-saturated LBE is improved, which can be attributed to the grain-refinement accelerated formation of dense Fe-Cr spinel. In oxygen-depleted LBE, the growth of oxide layers is very low with both types of specimens showing similar corrosion resistance.

The thermal behavior of $NiFe_2O_4$ prepared by a solid-state reaction was investigated for $H_2$ generation by the thermochemical cycle. The reduction of $NiFe_2O_4$ started from $800^{\circ}C$, and the weight loss was 0.2-0.3 wt% up to $1000^{\circ}C$. In the $H_2O$ decomposition reaction, $H_2$ was generated by oxidation of reduced $NiFe_2O_4$. The crystal structure of $NiFe_2O_4$ maintained during the redox reaction of 5 cycles. From this observation, the lattice oxygen in $NiFe_2O_4$ is released without the structural change during the thermal reduction and oxygen deficient $NiFe_2O_4$ can be restored to the spinel structure of $NiFe_2O_4$.

In the present study, nano-size powders of ternary ferrites, $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.5}Fe_2O_4$, as the potential catalysts of $CO_2$decomposition, were prepared by the wet processing of hydrothermal synthesis and coprecipitation method, and the catalyzing effects of impregnation of the noble metals, Pt and Pd, onto $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.5}Fe_2O_4$for the $CO_2$decomposition were investigated. XRD results of the synthesized ferrites showed a typical spinel structure of ferrite and the particle size was very small as about 6~10 nm. BET surface area of the ternary ferrites was not affected by the impregnation of Pt and Pd. The reactivity of the $CO_2$decomposition to carbon was improved by the impregnation of the noble metals of Pd and Pt. The effect of Pd-impregnation on the $CO_2$decomposition rate was higher than Pt-impregnation.

The systematic variation of complex permeability and complex permittivity and their relationship with micro-wave absorbing properties are investigated in sintered Ni-Zn ferrites of non-stoichiometric composition. The specirrens of ${(Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.5}O)}_{1-x}(Fe_{2}O_{3})_{1+x}$ spinels were prepared by a conventional ceramic processing technique. In the present study. complex permeability and permittivity can be controlled by the variation of ${\alpha}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ contents in the spinel lattice. The primary effect of the excess ${\alpha}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ is to increase the dielectric constant. while the notable decrease of magnetic loss is observed in the iron-deficient ferrites. The results suggest that the matching fre-queocyand matching thickness could be controlled by the variation of ${\alpha}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ contents in the Ni-Zn ferrite.

The crystallographic and magnetic properties of a series of substitutions in nickel ferrite where the Fe³⁺ is replaced with In³⁺ have been investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Mössbauer spectroscopy. Information on the exact crystalline structure, lattice parameters, bond lengths and bond angles were obtained by refining their XRD profiles by a Rietveld method. All the crystal structures were found to be cubic with the space group Fd/3m. The lattice constants increased with In³⁺ concentration. The expansion of the tetrahedron was outstanding, indicative of the tetrahedral (A) site preference of larger indium ion. The Mossbauer spectra showed two sets of sextuplet originating from ferric ions occupying the tetrahedral sites and the octahedral (B) sites under the Neel temperature T_N. Regardless of the composition x, the electric quadrupole splitting was zero within the experimental error. At x = 0.2, the magnetic hyperfine fields increased slightly, which meant that the nonmagnetic indium ions occupied preferentially the A-site. At the same time, the intensity of the B-site sub-spectra decreased markedly at the elevated temperature, indicating that the occupation of the A site by indium induced a considerable perturbation on the B site.

The magnetic thin films can be prepared without vacuum process and under the low temperature (<100 $^{\circ}C$) by ferrite plating. We have performed ferrite plating of M $n_{x}$Z $n_{0.22}$F $e_{2.78-x}$ $O_4$(x=0.00~0.08) films and N $i_{x}$Z $n_{0.22}$F $e_{*}$2.78-x/ $O_4$(x=0.00~0.15) films on cover glass at the substrate temperature 90 $^{\circ}C$. The crystal structure of the samples has been identified as a single phase of polycrystal spinel structure by x-ray diffraction technique. The lattice constant in the M $n_{x}$Z $n_{0.22}$F $e_{2.78-x}$ $O_4$films increases but in the N $i_{x}$Z $n_{0.22}$F $e_{*}$2.78-x/ $O_4$films decrease with the composition parameter, x. The saturation magnetization in the M $n_{x}$Z $n_{0.22}$F $e_{2.78-x}$ $O_4$films does not greatly change, in agreement with observations on bulk samples.k samples.k samples.

The reduced ferrites, reduced NiF $e_2$ $O_4$ and CuF $e_2$ $O_4$, by C $H_4$ were applied to $CO_2$ decomposition to avoid the greenhouse effects. At the reduction reaction above $700^{\circ}C$, $H_2$ and CO were generated by partial oxidation of C $H_4$ After the reduction reaction up to 80$0^{\circ}C$, the spinel structure ferrites changed to mixture of the oxygen deficient iron oxide (Fe $O_{(1-{\delta})}$(0$\leq$$\delta$$\leq$1)) and the metallic Ni or Cu. The rate and quantity of $CO_2$ decomposition with reduced CuF $e_2$ $O_4$ were larger than those with reduced NiFe $O_4$. The $CO_2$ gas was decomposed by oxidation of the oxygen deficient iron oxide. The metallic Cu and Ni were not oxidized and remained in a metallic state up to 80$0^{\circ}C$. The $CO_2$ decomposition reaction with the reduced ferrite by C $H_4$ gas is excellent process preparing useful gas such as $H_2$and CO and decomposing $CO_2$ gas.
