Polymer – Coated Ferrite Nanocomposites Synthesized by Plasma Polymerization

Magnetic nanocomposites are an important class of advanced functional materials on the basis of a magnetic material and a matrix. To achieve unique mechanical, physical, chemical, and biomedical properties, one must be able to tailor only the surface structures of a nanoparticle. This requires the deposition of ultrathin and uniform films using the possibility offered by cold-plasma polymerisation process. The paper presents the synthesis of a magnetic composite based on ferrite and a vinyl polymer, with some data of physico-chemical characterization.
