Abstract
A process for producing ultra-fine barium hexaferrite particles. In the first step of this process, a ceramic precursor material containing barium and trivalent ferric cations, a nitrogen-containing material, a solvent, and an anion capable of participating in an anionic oxidation-reduction reaction with the nitrogen-containing material, is provided. In the second step of the process, droplets of such ceramic precursor material are formed. In the third step of the process, the droplets are dried until particles which contain less than about 15 weight percent of solvent are produced. In the fourth step of this process, such particles are ignited in an atmosphere which contains substantially less than about 60 weight percent of the solvent's saturation value in such atmosphere.
