Barium Ferrite (BaFe12O19)-Sputtering Target

Characteristic

Barium ferrite, abbreviated BaFe, BaM, is the chemical compound with the formula BaFe₁₂O₁₉. This and related ferrite materials are components in magnetic stripe cards and loudspeaker magnets.

Chemical formula：BaFe₁₂O₁₉

Molar mass：1111.448 g·mol⁻¹

Appearance：black solid

Density：5.28 g/cm³

Melting point：1,316 °C (2,401 °F; 1,589 K)

Solubility in water：insoluble

Application

Barium ferrite is used in applications such as recording media, permanent magnets, and magnetic stripe cards (credit cards, hotel keys, ID cards). Due to the stability of the material, it is able to be greatly reduced in size, making the packing density much greater.
