Structural and magnetic properties of cadmium substituted manganese ferrites prepared by hydrothermal route

► Hydrothermal synthesized of mono dispersed Cd-substituted MnFe2O4 nanoparticles. ► The change in Ms with increasing Cd-substitution was investigated ► Pure single phases of cubic ferrites were obtained with x up to 0.3 ► Sample with x≥0.5 showed hexagonal phase of Cd(OH)2 beside the ferrite
