Nano-Magnesium ferrite (MgFe2O4) powders have been prepared by a modified combustion synthesis method named impregnated active layer combustion (IALC). The effects of five important parameters such as main fuel to oxidizer ratio (F/O), main fuel type, added fuel type, template type and main fuel (Added F/MF) to the added fuel ratio have been studied using Taguchi design. Xylitol, D-mannitol, ethylene diamine tetra acetic acid (EDTA) and diethylene triamine penta acetic acid (DTPA) were used as fuels. Besides, waste newspaper and Platanus orientalis leaf (POL) were used as new green templates. Samples were characterized by XRD, XRF, SEM, TEM, BET and VSM analyses. Results showed that the average crystallite size of the sample prepared under optimized condition (mixture of Xylitol and DTPA as fuel, POL as template, and Added F/MF ratio of 0.75) was 17.66 nm. The result was confirmed by TEM. The saturated magnetization of the optimum sample was 21 emu/g and the specific surface area was 15.377 m(2)/g.
