Zinc ferrite (ZnFe2O4) nanocrystalline powder material was prepared by combustion method. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) is used to study on structural properties. The magnetic properties of the sample were measured at room temperature using vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) in the field range �15000 G. Hysteresis loop obtained room temperature for ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles indicates that the nanoparticles are ferromagnetic in nature.

Nanostructure of Y-type hexaferrite with composition of Sr 2 Ni 2 Al x/2 Cr x/2 Fe 12-x O 22 (where x are 0, 0.6, 1.2, 1.8, 2.4 and 3) were prepared by sol–gel auto-combustion method. The influence of Al and Cr doping on the structural and magnetic properties has been investigated. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns confirm phase formation of Y-type hexaferrite. The microstructure and morphology of prepared samples were studied by high resolution field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) which shows the hexagonal shape for all of the samples. Magnetic properties were characterized using vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The magnetic results revealed that by increasing the Al and Cr to the structure, the coercivity was also increased from 840 Oe to 1160 Oe. Moreover it has been shown that with addition of dopants, saturation magnetization (Ms) and remnant magnetization (Mr) were decreased from 39.61 emu/g to 30.11 emu/g and from 17.51 emu/g to 14.62 emu/g, respectively, due to the entrance of nonmagnetic ions into Fe 3+ sites.

Pure and Ni-doped ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles, Zn1-xNixFe2O4 (x = 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 and 0.5) were synthesized by microwave combustion method (MCM). The structural, morphological and magnetic properties of the products were determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), high resolution scanning electron microscopy (HR-SEM) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). X-ray analysis showed that all the compositions crystallize with cubic spinel structure. The broadband visible emission is observed in the entire photoluminescence (PL) spectrum and the estimated energy band gap is about 2.1 eV. VSM measurements shows superparamagnetic behavior for lower concentration of Ni (x ≤ 0.2), whereas for higher concentration (x ≥ 0.2), it becomes ferromagnetic. The saturation magnetization (Ms) varies considerably with Ni content to reach a maximum value for Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 composition, i.e. 57.89 emu/g.

The nano-crystalline iron nitride films with a mixture of γ- Fe 4 N , ε Fe 3 N and α Fe 2 N phases were synthesized on copper substrate by sol–gel technology. The structure, morphology and magnetic properties of the samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and vibrating sample magnetometer. The films are ferromagnetic at room temperature. Magnetic properties such as coercive forces and saturation magnetization were found to be 398 Oestered and 32.92 emu/cm3, respectively.

Thin films nanoparticles TbxY3-xFe5O12 (x=0.0, 1.0, 2.0) were prepared by the sol-gel process followed by annealing process at various annealing temperatures of 700° C, 800° C and 900° C in air for 2 h. The results obtained from X-ray diffractometer (XRD) show that the films annealed below 900°C exhibit peaks of garnet mixed with small amounts of YFeO3 and Fe2O3. Pure garnet phase has been detected in the films annealed at 900°C. Before annealing the films show amorphous structures. The particles sizes measurement using the field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) showed that the particles sizes increased as the annealing temperature increased. The magnetic properties were measured at room temperature using the vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The saturation magnetization (Ms) of the films also increased with the annealing temperature. However, different behavior of coercivity (Hc) has been observed as the annealing temperature was increased.

Photothermal materials are attracting more and more attention. In this research, we synthesized a ferrocene-containing polymer with magnetism and photothermal properties. The resulting polymer was characterized by Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Its photo-thermocatalytic activity was investigated by choosing methylene blue (MB) as a model compound. The degradation percent of MB under an irradiated 808 nm laser reaches 99.5% within 15 min, and the degradation rate is 0.5517 min−1, which is 145 times more than that of room temperature degradation. Under irradiation with simulated sunlight, the degradation rate is 0.0092 min−1, which is approximately 2.5 times more than that of room temperature degradation. The present study may open up a feasible route to degrade organic pollutants.

AbstractThis study presents a preparation of SrFe12O19– SrTiO3 nanocomposite synthesis via the green auto-combustion method. At first, SrFe12O19 nanoparticles were synthesized as a core and then, SrTiO3 nanoparticles were prepared as a shell for it to manufacture SrFe12O19–SrTiO3 nanocomposite. A novel sol-gel auto-combustion green synthesis method has been used with lemon juice as a capping agent. The prepared SrFe12O19–SrTiO3 nanocomposites were characterized by using several techniques to characterize their structural, morphological and magnetic properties. The crystal structures of the nanocomposite were investigated via X-ray diffraction (XRD). The morphology of SrFe12O19– SrTiO3 nanocomposite was studied by using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The elemental composition of the materials was analyzed by an energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX). Magnetic properties and hysteresis loop of nanopowder were characterized via vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) in the room temperature. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) spectra of the samples showed the molecular bands of nanoparticles. Also, the photocatalytic behavior of nanocomposites has been checked by the degradation of azo dyes under irradiation of ultraviolet light.

Fe-based colloids with a core/shell structure consisting of metallic iron and iron oxide were synthesized by a facile hot injection reaction of iron pentacarbonyl in a multi-surfactant mixture. The size of the colloidal particles was affected by the reaction temperature and the results demonstrated that their stability against complete oxidation related to their size. The crystal structure and the morphology were identified by powder X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy, while the magnetic properties were studied at room temperature with a vibrating sample magnetometer. The injection temperature plays a very crucial role and higher temperatures enhance the stability and the resistance against oxidation. For the case of injection at 315 °C, the nanoparticles had around a 10 nm mean diameter and revealed 132 emu/g. Remarkably, a stable dispersion was created due to the colloids’ surface functionalization in a nonpolar solvent.

The influences of the substitution of Ni with Mg on crystallographic and magnetic properties of the intermetallic alloys LaNi5-xMgx (x ≤ 0.4) were investigated. The X-ray diffraction patterns showed that all samples were of single phase, and the lattice parameters, a and c, decreased slightly upon chemical doping. LaNi5 is well known as an exchange-enhanced Pauli paramagnet. Interestingly, in LaNi5-xMgx, the ferromagnetic order existed even with a small amount of dopants; the Curie temperature reached the value of room temperature for x = 0.2, and enhanced with increasing x.

Gallic acid-modified magnetites were synthesized by one and two-step reactions via the newly developed sonochemical co-precipitation method. The two-step reaction included the formation of magnetite powder and mixing the magnetite powder with gallic acid solution, while the one-step reaction did not go through the formation magnetite powder. The obtained gallic acid-modified magnetites were characterized by the Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, the X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and the Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). More over, the magnetic properties were studied by using a Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM). The characterization results showed that there were differences in crystalinity, surface morphology and magnetic properties of products that were formed by one and two-step reactions.
