	%X In this paper, strontium ferrite (SrO.6Fe2O3) was
synthesized by the sol-gel auto-combustion process. The thermal
behavior of powder obtained from self-propagating combustion of
initial gel was evaluated by simultaneous differential thermal analysis
(DTA) and thermo gravimetric (TG), from room temperature to
1200°C. The as-burnt powder was calcined at various temperatures
from 700-900°C to achieve the single-phase Sr-ferrite. Phase
composition, morphology and magnetic properties were investigated
using X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy
(TEM) and vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) techniques.
Results showed that the single-phase and nano-sized hexagonal
strontium ferrite particles were formed at calcination temperature of
800°C with crystallite size of 27 nm and coercivity of 6238 Oe.
