Fabrication of new magnetite-graphene nanocomposite and comparison of its laser-hyperthermia properties with conventionally prepared magnetite-graphene hybrid
“…The peak located at 288.6 eV is attributed to the functional groups –COOH/–O–C = O, while the contribution located at 283.4 eV is related to possible chemical interactions between carbon and iron [20, 23]. Due to the small area of this last peak, the Fe-C interactions can be considered as pseudometallic bonds possibly caused by the π electrons of the carbon black and the free iron electrons of the synthetic magnetite [24]. This would allow us to confirm the chemical interactions among the fillers that constitutes the synthetic magnetite composites.…”
The interfacial region of nitrile butadiene rubber matrix composites filled with magnetite and carbon black particles was studied. Raman spectroscopy was used as an alternative to study the filler-matrix interface behaviour. It was found that the amount of magnetite and its size (nano or micro) induce variations in the stress transfer between the fillers and the matrix. Stress propagation altered the graphitic domains of the carbon black that fill the matrix and induced shifts in position, changes in width, and intensity of the D and G bands. The XPS high-resolution spectra corresponding to the Fe2p, C1s, and S2p regions of the composites confirmed chemical interactions at the interface of the nanosized magnetite-filled composites. Fe-C and Fe-S bonds were identified in those regions between the fillers and the NBR matrix. No chemical bonds were found at the interface of the composites filled with microsized magnetite.

“…In addition, magnetic functionalization of GO finds applications in contrast enhancement in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for diagnosing and monitoring diseases and also in localized hyperthermia to treat cancerous cells. 8,9 Although several magnetic nanoparticles can be incorporated with GO for biological applications, the spinel ferrites like Fe 3 O 4 , CoFe 2 O 4 , and NiFe 2 O 4 with wide absorption bands, narrow band gap, high stability, and magnetic properties have triggered lots of interest among other magnetic materials. [10][11][12][13] The biological applications of magnetic functionalized GObased systems, primarily in a two-dimensional geometry, have already been investigated.…”
Magnetic hybrids with exceptional magnetic and optical properties have emerged as promising materials for diverse applications. In the present work, magnetite (Fe3O4) functionalized graphene oxide (GO) was synthesized using a...
“…It has been reported that a temperature range of 41.8-44 C provides the most suitable conditions for entire body hyperthermia. 5 This is due to the leaky vasculature of the cancer cells that obstructs dissipation of thermal energy from them, as compared to the well-ordered blood vessels and nerves connected to healthy cells that can stand against heat by a more efficient heat dissipation, and a greater excretion of the heat shock proteins. 6,7 The unique feature of nanoparticles to act selectively on the tumor cells sparing the healthy cells makes this therapeutic technique much more accurate as compared to the conventional methods.…”
