MnFe2O4 polycrystalline powders were prepared by the chemical coprecipitation method. When the reaction temperature is above 80 ℃, through depositing and washing, the MnFe2O4 can be obtained directly without calcining. However, when it is below 80 ℃, we have to calcine the precursor in order to obtain MnFe2O4, which does not result in pure spinal structure but a mixture of MnFe2O4 and α-Fe2O3. The powders＇ magnetic property was characterized with a Vibrating Sample Magnetometer. The phase structure, crystal size and lattice constant were presented by an X-ray diffractometer. In addition, the morphology of the powder was observed with a scan electron microscope and a transmission electron microscope.
