Questions asked by users might not always be phrased in the clearest way.
Do ferromagnetic materials have a greater magnetic moment than ferrimagnetic materials?
Accepted Answer
Ferromagnetic materials generally have a greater magnetic moment per unit volume than ferrimagnetic materials. This is because in ferromagnetic materials, all magnetic domains align in the same direction, leading to a strong net magnetic moment. In ferrimagnetic materials, the magnetic moments of the different sublattices are antiparallel, resulting in a weaker net magnetic moment.
