Ba1-xLaxFe12O19 with ion substitution La3+ (x = 0 – 0.7) has been produced via the mechanical milling technique of the solid reaction method. Considering that Ba1-xLaxFe12O19 is expected to be used as a microwave absorbent, it is necessary to characterize its structural and magnetic features. The refinement results of the X-ray diffraction (XRD) data show that a single-phase hexagonal structure (space group P63/mmc) is obtained for x = 0 and x = 1, while for the composition of x > 0.1 is multiphase. The lattice parameters and crystal volume decreased, whereas the lattice strain was found to advance with increasing La substitution in the sample. For x = 0.1, the crystallite size is constant while the lattice strain increases. Employing a scanning electron microscope (SEM), the observation of particle morphology shows that the single-phase (x = 0 and x = 0.1) has a comparably unvarying particle size circulation, while for x > 0.1, different particle shapes and sizes are found. The saturation magnetization raises while the coercivity field reduces due to the substitution of La for x = 0.1. Furthermore, for x > 0.1, the saturation magnetization decreases while the coercivity field increases.References
