HKUST-1 metal-organic framework (MOF) and Fe3O4@HKUST-1 magnetic framework composites (MFCs) were developed by a simple and sustainable liquid assisted mechanochemical synthesis process. The growth of the MOF crystalline structure was directed on the surface of functionalized magnetite particles, which act as "crystallization germs". The...

The exploitation of the exchange coupling between hard and soft magnetic materials has been proposed for enhancing the magnetic performances of rare-earth free permanent magnets, with the aim of extending their use to all applications where moderate energy product (35–100 kJ m-3) is required. Strontium hexaferrite (SFO)/spinel ferrite...
