iron oxide (fe2o3) is widely used as a catalyst, pigment and gas sensitive material.  in this article, α-fe2o3 nano-rods were first synthesized via a simple chemical method using iron(iii) nitrate 9- hydrate (fe(no3)3.9h2o) as precursor. xrd pattern showed that the iron oxide nanoparticles exhibited alpha-fe2o3 (hematite) structure in nanocrystals. the single-phase α- fe2o3 nano-rods were prepa...

Introduction: hyperthermia using different methods such as microwave and magnetic waves is one of the methods to treat cancer. In this method, iron and magnetic nanoparticles are used to increase the temperature and increase the effect of hyperthermia as auxiliary treatment with chemotherapy and radiotherapy. In this study, the role of iron and magnetic nanoparticles have been ...

We fabricated self-standing films of cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) and electrospun composite fibers with CNC and polyvinyl alcohol both with magnetic properties arising from cobalt iron oxide nanoparticles in the CNC matrix. Aqueous dispersions of cobalt-iron oxide nanoparticles (10–80 nm diameter) and CNCs (ca. 150 nm length) were used as precursor systems for the films and composite fibers. Th...

Ionic liquids (ILs)-stabilized iron oxide (Fe(2)O(3)) nanoparticles were synthesized by the ultrasonic decomposition of iron carbonyl precursors in [EMIm][BF(4)] without any stabilizing or capping agents. The Fe(2)O(3) nanoparticles were isolated and characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and susceptibility measurements. The physicochemical properties of ILs...

recent progress in nanotechnology and electrochemical methods can be applied to fine control of the size, crystal structure, and surface properties of iron oxide nanoparticles. here we appliedcathodic electrochemical deposition (ced) as an efficient and effective tactic for synthesisand double coating of surface of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (spions). in first step, bare fe3o4 n...

in the past decade, magnetic nanomaterials have attracted much attention due to their physical properties and technological applications. in this work, α-fe2o3 nanoparticles were first synthesized via a simple co-precipitation method using iron chloride hexahydrate (fecl3.6h2o) as precursor and ammonia solution as precipitator. the samples were then characterized by high resolution transmission...

Introduction: Graphene oxide (GO) sheets are carbon-networking nanomaterials offering excellent potential for drug delivery platforms due to hydrophobic interactions and high drug-loading efficiency. Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles can be used in certain applications such as cell labeling, drug delivery, targeting, magnetic resonance imaging and hyperthermia. Due t...

One of the most important types of liver cancer is hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). HCC is the fifth most common cancer, and its correct diagnosis is very important. For the quick diagnosis of HCC, the use of nanoparticles is helpful. The major applications of nanoparticles are in medicine for organ imaging. Two methods of liver imaging are X-ray computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance i...

Iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized and coated with silica by conventional coprecipitation method. Silica coated iron oxide nanoparticles were surface functionalized with chitosan. Silica coating and chitosan functionalization were confirmed by FTIR and TG-DTA analysis. XRD pattern revealed that the pure phase of Fe3O4 was retained even after coating. Particles of average size 12 nm were ...
