Combustion synthesis of single phase Nickel ferrite was successfully achieved at low temperature regime. The obtained powders were calcinated to increase the crystallinity and their characterization change due to calcinations is investigated in detail. Citric acid used as a chelating agent for the synthesis of nickel ferrite. Pure single phase nickel ferrites were found at this low temperature. The average crystalline sizes were measured by using powder XRD measurements. Surface morphology was investigated through Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM). Particle size calculated in XRD is compared with TEM results. Magnetic behaviour of the samples is analyzed by using Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM). Saturation magnetization, coercivity and retentivity are measured and their results are discussed in detail.
