Table 2

Magnetic parameters of the samples: temperature of the maximum of the ZFC curve, (range of error ~10 K for nanocomposite samples due to the broad maximum); mean blocking temperature, , obtained from the fit of the ZFC curve with distribution of blocking temperatures (range of error ~2 K); saturation magnetization at 10 and 400 K, and (range of error ~1 Am2/kg); coercivity at 10 K, (range of error ~0.05 T); and effective anisotropy constant, obtained using (1) (range of error ~0.06 × 106 J/m3). Results of the refinement of the curves: mean magnetic moments, , and corresponding mean magnetic particle diameters, .
