Abstract
The present invention provides a hexagonal magnetic ferrite pigment suitable for high density magnetic recording applications. The pigment is characterized by small particle size, a modified magnetoplumbite structure, and relatively high magnetic moment. The pigment is capable of being prepared by firing suitable precursor particles in air at temperatures below 850.degree. C.
