Present study reports, green synthesis of cr doped Nia4Zna3CrxFe2o4 ferrite nanoparticles using lemon juice. The structural, functional, morphological and magnetic properties of the sample were investigated using X-Ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, and vibrating sample magnetometer. The XRD studies revealed the formation of spinal cubic crystal structure, with crystallite size of 26 - 33 nm. The lattice constant (a) of the product was between 8.3674 - 8.4056. FESEM analysis showed spherical particles, with the grain size of 29 - 38 nm. EDX confirmed purity of the sample. FTIR showed two wave numbers, around 541 and 431 Cm−1 with tetrahedral and octahedral stretching. The magnetic parameters obtained from VSM data showed increased saturation magnetisation (Ms).
