Fe-doped La0.77Sr0.23Mn1 - y Fe y O3 nanoparticles have been synthesized by sol-gel method, and ceramic samples based on them were sintered at 1613 K. Crystallographic and magnetic properties of obtained nanoparticles and ceramic samples have been studied. It has been established that cell volume for nanoparticles increases with growing of iron content, while this dependence displays an opposit...

This research describes the preparation and sensor applications of multifunctional monodisperse, Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles-embedded poly(styrene)/poly(thiophene) (Fe₃O₄-PSt/PTh), core/shell nanoparticles. Monodisperse Fe₃O₄-PSt/PTh nanoparticles were prepared by free-radical combination (mini-emulsion/emulsion) polymerization for Fe₃O₄-PSt core and oxidative seeded emulsion polymerization for PTh she...

We have successfully controlled the size of magnetic nanoparticles by adjusting the surfactant/solvent ratio. Gamma-Fe(2)O(3) nanoparticles of 5.6 and 12.7, and Fe(0) nanoparticles of 22.3 nm in diameter were prepared, all having spherical shape and uniform size as confirmed by TEM. Mössbauer spectra confirmed Fe(3+) for the 5.6 and 12.7 nm particles and Fe(3+) and Fe(0) for 22.3 nm particles, ...

In this study, surface modification of iron (II, III) oxide Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles by oleic acid (OA) coating is investigated for the microablation of fat in a microchannel. The nanoparticles are synthesized by the co-precipitation method and then dispersed in organic solvent prior to mixing with the OA. The magnetization, agglomeration, and particle size distribution properties of the OA-coated F...

Iron core gold shell nanoparticles grafted with Methotrexate (MTX) and indocyanine green (ICG) were synthesized for the first time in this study, and preliminarily evaluated for their potential in magnetic hyperthermia treatment. The core-shell Fe@Au nanoparticles were prepared via the microemulsion process and then grafted with MTX and ICG using hydrolyzed poly(styrene-alt-maleic acid) (PSMA) ...

Oxygen Reduction Reaction (ORR) performance of iron and nitrogen co-doped porous carbon nanoparticles (Fe-NPC) with various physical and (electro) chemical properties have been investigated. Fe-NPC nanoparticles are synthesized via a facile soft-templating procedure by using Iron (III) chloride hexa-hydrate as iron precursor and aminophenol-formaldehyde resin as both carbon and nitrogen precurs...

the magnetite (fe3o4) – agar nanocomposite was prepared by co-precipitation of fe (iii) and fe (ii) ions for the first time. the obtained samples were characterized by x-ray diffraction, fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. ft-ir results confirm the formation of fe3o4 nanoparticles in agar matrix. the xrd results revealed th...

Iron (Fe) is a key micronutrient regulating primary productivity in many parts of the global ocean. Dust deposition is an important source of Fe to the surface ocean, but most of this Fe is biologically unavailable. Atmospheric processing and reworking of Fe in dust aerosol can increase the bioavailable Fe inputs to the ocean, yet the processes are not well understood. Here, we experimentally s...

FeCo alloys are an important soft magnetic material because of their unique magnetic properties including large permeability and very high saturation magnetization. FeCo nanoparticles are ideal building blocks for nanostructured thin film or bulk magnetic materials1-3 and are also suitable for biomedical applications.4 However, synthesis of monodisperse FeCo nanoparticles remains a challenging ...

Here we demonstrate that the anomalous magnetic properties of iron oxide nanoparticles are correlated with defects in their interior. We studied the evolution of microstructure and magnetic properties of biphasic core|shell Fe(1-x)O|Fe(3-δ)O4 nanoparticles synthesized by thermal decomposition during their topotaxial oxidation to single-phase nanoparticles. Geometric phase analysis of high-resol...
