A series of lanthanum oxide doped of Strontium ferrite material has been produced by using a solid-state reaction method with the composition of (1-x) SrO : (x)La 2 O 3 : (6)Fe 2 O 3 , where x = 0.2 mol. The solid-state reaction method consists of mixing, milling with time duration of (hour) 0.5; 1.0 and 1.5, pressing, annealing at 800 ° C for 1 hour, and sintering at 1100 °C for 3 hours. XRD, VSM, and VNA characterizations have been carried out to analyze the structure, magnetic properties, and microwave absorption capability, respectively. The characterization results showed the appearance of Sr 0,5 La 0,5 Fe 12 O 19 , SrFe 12 O 19 and Fe 2 O 3 crystal phases. The samples with a milling time of 1 hour produced the highest Sr 0.5 La 0.5 Fe 12 O 19 crystal phase and the smallest crystal size and also the highest M s value. These factors result in to achieve the best microwave absorption capability. The highest microwave absorption is -35.99 dB at a frequency of 7.69 GHz which is attained by the samples with a milling time of 1 hour. Increasing the milling time by more than 1 hour will cause the sample to agglomerate so that the crystal size increases, the Sr 0.5 La 0.5 Fe 12 O 19 crystal phase decreases, the M s value also decreases, and ultimately causes absorption capability of the microwave also decreases. Generally, the 1 hour milling time process yields the magnetic material which is very promising for electromagnetic interference (EMI) absorption applications for frequencies of 8 - 12 GHz (X-Band).
