One-step hydrothermal synthesis of highly water-soluble secondary structural Fe3O4 nanoparticles

Ultrafine Magnetite Nanopowder: Synthesis, Characterization, and Preliminary Use as Filler of Polymethylmethacrylate Nanocomposites

“…Literature references [36,37] employ iron(III) chloride, FeCl 3 ·6H 2 O as the metal precursor in the hydrolytic reactions, while in the present work the Fe 3 O 4 precursor was FeCl 2 ·4H 2 O. This is a main difference that requires to be highlighted since most of the "soft-chemistry" synthetic strategies (both hydrolytic and nonhydrolytic) for the obtainment of magnetite nanoparticles start from iron-(III-)based precursor (see e.g., [38,39]). Moreover, in the work by Parsons et al [37] the product obtained at the reaction temperature of 100…”

A facile one-pot synthesis of poly(acrylic acid)-functionalized magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles for suppressing reactive oxygen species generation and adsorption of biocatalyst

“…However, these coating and surface modification of magnetic magnetite particles with PAA were performed by a multistep post synthesis process [28,29]. As a one-pot process, Yang et al and Xiwen et al had prepared PAA-coated Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles by using solvothermal processes [30,31]. In spite of the single process, these methods are tedious due to the requirements of organic solvents and vigorous reaction conditions, often resulting in surface contaminated particles with organic co-solvent and relatively weaker magnetic property and also offering large-sized particles that are unsuitable for bio-related applications [32].…”

An experimental study on the synthesis of poly(vinyl pivalate)-based magnetic nanocomposites through suspension polymerization process

“…Magnetite may be synthetically prepared by several experimental techniques, such as precipitation from mixtures of ferric and ferrous ions in an alkaline medium, oxidation of ferrous ion from ferrous hydroxide solutions, interaction of ferrous ions with hydrated iron oxide solutions or decomposition of organic precursors. Although chemical coprecipitation methods are widely used to the synthesis of ferrites nanoparticles [2,3,[6][7][8][9][10], others important experimental techniques also deserve attention, such as hydrothermal [11,12], sonochemical [13,14], sol-gel [15,16], solvothermal [17][18][19], flow injection in tubular nanoreactors and electrochemical [20], aerosol [21] and precipitation from water-in-oil microemulsions [22].…”
