Factors such as particle type and its loading have been previously studied in tailoring the efficiency of particles-modified polymeric membranes for water treatment. However, the role of particle sizes in membrane modification is often overlooked.

Silicates represent an alternative drinking water treatment for colour and turbidity due to iron. They may avoid the drawbacks of polyphosphates: increased lead solubility, the potential for increased bacterial growth, and phosphorus in wastewater.

Matrix-mediated in situ synthesis of monodispersed magnetite and maghemite nanoparticles (2–16 nm) was carried out using the cavities present in gels of globular proteins such as egg white and bovine serum albumin. Under stringent conditions, spatial-charge-distribution-assisted molecular recognition of proteins for inorganic ions led to the site- and polymorph-specific synthesis of superparamagnetic iron oxide particles. A transformation from magnetite to maghemite as a nucleating phase could be observed by partially denaturing the egg white protein, signifying the delicate role of quaternary structure of proteins under different reaction conditions, in determining the size and shape of the polymorph.

ABSTRACTWe present a study on the magnetic behavior of nanosized iron oxide particles coated with different surfactants (sodium oleate, PVA and starch) in a ferrofluid. The effect of the coating material, and different particle concentrations in the ferrofluid have been magnetically investigated to determine the effective magnetic particle size and possible interaction. The superparamagnetic iron oxide particles, synthesized by a controlled co-precipitation technique, are found to contain magnetite (Fe3O4) as a main phase with a narrow physical particle size distribution between 6 and 8 nm. The mean effective magnetic size of the particles in different ferrofluid systems are estimated to be around 4-5 nm which is smaller than the physical particle size. On a 10% dilution in the starch coated ferrofluid we observe a decrease in the blocking temperature.

An atom-efficient, wholly aqueous one-pot synthesis of zwitterionic diblock copolymers has been devised. Such copolymers can serve as highly effective aqueous dispersants for nano-sized transparent yellow iron oxide particles.
