Abstract
The weight changes occuring in manganese‐zinc ferrites containing 2–15 wt % ferrous iron have been followed by TGA up to 1420°C. Those changes which result from the valency change Fe3+→Fe2+ have been more closely studied as a function of temperature between 1100° and 1350°C and of atmosphere for oxygen contents between 0.025% and 21%. From the equilibrium partial pressures of oxygen over MnZn ferrites having ferrous contents up to 10 wt %, a composition‐temperature‐atmosphere diagram has been constructed. Ferrites containing more than 10 wt % of Fe2+ showed marked deviations from this diagram.
