The carbon-encapsulated superparamagnetic colloidal nanoparticles (SCNps) were rigidized into soft solids by embedding the SCNps into polyacrylamide hydrogel matrixes under the induction of an external magnetic field. Stabilized by the balance of attractive (magnetic) and repulsive (electrostatic) forces, the SCNps form one-dimension photonic crystal structures along the direction of the external magnetic field and further the structures are frozen into the solidified polymer matrix. The polymer matrix embedded one-dimension photonic crystal structures can strongly diffract visible light and present brilliant color in the light. This novel and soft solid polymer matrix that could be shaped and sliced not only paves a new avenue for develop novel magnetic-responsive photonic crystal materials and devices, but also provides a method to observe the magnetic-induced self-assembly structures of the SCNps in media such as polyacrylamide hydrogel matrixs as a result of the ordered structures frozen into the polyacrylamide hydrogel matrixs. So we can reveal the relationship between their structure and color, and furthermore permit a systematic exploration on magnetically induced self-assembling dynamics, colloidal crystallography which have important significance in the large-scale industrial production in the future.

The objective of the present article is to introduce nanoparticles of a ferromagnetic material (magnetite) to the polymer matrix. We will make some study to verify that the coupling of the nanoparticles in the material was carried out. The present work describes the self-assembly of nanocomposite in suspensión polymerization of PS/PMMA block copolymer, containing magnetite (Fe3O4) which is sonicated with the monomer mixture, with percentages of 0.25% and 0.5% in proportion of the weight of mixture. Photographs were taken with the microscope to verify the coupling of the ferromagnetic material to the polymer matrix, and to verify that couplig, we made characterization by infrared spectroscopy. Also describes the process of nanocomposite synthesis using co-precipitation method, in which ferric chloride and ferrous chloride are combined in an excess basic medium, to subsequently induce the precipitation of the material with a magnet.

Three-dimensional interfacial nanocomposites consisting of a polymer matrix, electroactive nanoparticles and enzymes are synthesized on electrode surfaces via surface self-assembly chemistry. The nanocomposites show promising observations for achieving fast electron transfer and efficient electrocatalysis.
