On theoretical grounds the critical single-domain size for γ-Fe2O3 is expected to be somewhat larger than for Fe3O4. Measurements of the variation of coercive force with temperature and with compression for a single iron-oxide powder in both the Fe3O4 and γ-Fe2O3 forms yield strong evidence in support of this conclusion.
