Highly textured barium hexaferrite material is a good candidate as the high performance gyromagnetic ferrite for self-biased and low loss millimeter wave devices. To fabricate it, a magnetic forming and liquid phase participation sintering route has been developed and its formation mechanism has been discussed based on the heating behaviors of starting powders and micro-structural characteristics of sintered bulk materials. The results indicated that the diffusion and re-crystallization of liquid phase from melting of small crystallites promoted fast densification and high orientation and led to the formation of highly textured structures. The highest grain orientation degree achieved to 0.986 at the optimum sintering temperature of 1280 °C. As the grain orientation degree increased, the coercive forces of the obtained barium hexaferrite materials dramatically decreased from 5185 Oe to 120 Oe, while the apparent magneto-crystalline anisotropic fields linearly decreased to the value very similar to the theoretical value of single crystals.
