Abstract
Abstract Magnetoplumbites having the formula MO.nFe203, wherein M is strontium and n is from about 3 to about 6.5, having densities of not less than 95% of the theoretical maximum, having average crystallite sizes of less than about 2.0 microns, preferably having at least 90% of their crystallites less than 2.5 microns in diameter and having crystallite orientations of not less than about 95%, yield permanent ceramic magnets having both high coercive forces and remanences.
