In this paper, uniform and superparamagnetic nanoparticles have been prepared using one-step polyol synthesis method. Structural, morphological and magnetic properties of obtained MnFe2O4 nanoparticles have been investigated by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) techniques. Structural investigation showed that the average crystallite size of obtained nanoparticles was about 10[Formula: see text]nm. Magnetic study revealed that the nanoparticles were superparamagnetic at room temperature with magnetization 67[Formula: see text]emu/g at room temperature. The self-heating characteristics of synthesized MnFe2O4 nanoparticles were studied by applying external AC magnetic field of 167.6 to 335.2[Formula: see text]Oe at a fixed frequency of 265[Formula: see text]kHz. The SAR values of MnFe2O4 nanoparticles were calculated for 2, 5, 10[Formula: see text]mg[Formula: see text]mL[Formula: see text] concentrations and it is observed that the threshold hyperthermia temperature is achieved for all concentrations.
