Numerous applications of hexagonal ferrites are related to their easy axis or easy plane magnetocrystalline anisotropy configurations. Certain W-type ferrites undergo spin reorientation transitions (SRT) between different anisotropy states on magnetic field or temperature variation. The transition point can be tuned by modifying the chemical composition, which suggests a potential application of hexaferrites in room temperature magnetic refrigeration. Here we present the results of structural and magnetic characterization of BaCo_xZn_{2-x}Fe_{16}O_{27} (0.7 \leq x \leq 2) doped barium ferrites. Fine powders were prepared using a sol-gel citrate precursor method. Crystal structures and particle size distributions were examined by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. The optimal synthesis temperature ensuring complete formation of single W-phase with limited grain growth has been determined. Spin reorientation transitions were revealed by thermomagnetic analysis and AC susceptibility measurements.
