Abstract

Spinel ferrites as a type of inorganic compounds have attracted the interest of scientists since their discovery in the last century until now. Spinel ferrites have become one of the best materials for various applications such as catalysts, adsorbents, gas sensors, lithium battery fillers, information storage systems, magnetic fluids, microwave absorbers, etc. The popularity of these ferrites is due to the ability to regulate their specific properties, such as coercive force, permeability, resistivity, and saturation magnetization, by changing their chemical composition and production technologies. In the review, a comparative analysis of various compositions of spinel ferrites, the structure of spinel ferrites, and possible applications was carried out. The classification of methods of obtaining was carried out. Liquid-phase methods can be considered more technologically feasible. When comparing hydrothermal, sonochemical, and sol-gel synthesis methods, it was found that the hydrothermal process makes it possible to adjust the size, shape, monodispersity, and crystallinity. The newest technologies for obtaining ferrites are also considered in detail; plasma, and ultrasonic. Their features are described.
