Abstract
ⶠThis manuscript reports for the first time to prepare Mn-Zn soft magnetic ferrite nanoparticles using spent alkaline Zn-Mn batteries as raw material by multi-step processes including acid leaching, chemical treatment of battery iron shells and citrate-nitrate precursor auto-combustion. ⶠSynthesized Mn0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 ferrite nanoparticles have pure ferrite phase, larger saturation magnetization and lower coercivity compared with the same composition ferrites prepared by other techniques due to better crystallinity. ⶠAuto-combustion Mn-Zn ferrite nanoparticles synthesis method presents a viable alternative for alkaline Zn-Mn batteries recycling due to its target product is not a single metal or its oxide. ⶠIt is original and not currently submitted for review to any other journal and their intent is to publish the article in the Journal of Alloys and Compounds.
