In this study, a magnetic copper ferrite/montmorillonite-k10 nanocomposite (CuFe2O4/MMT-k10) was successfully fabricated by a simple sol-gel combustion method and was characterised by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), the Brunner–Emmett–Teller (BET) method, vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). For levofloxacin (LVF) degradation, CuFe2O4/MMT-k10 was utilized to activate persulfate (PS). Due to the relative high adsorption capacity of CuFe2O4/MMT-k10, the adsorption feature was considered an enhancement of LVF degradation. In addition, the response surface methodology (RSM) model was established with the parameters of pH, temperature, PS dosage, and CuFe2O4/MMT-k10 dosage as the independent variables to obtain the optimal response for LVF degradation. In cycle experiments, we identified the good stability and reusability of CuFe2O4/MMT-k10. We proposed a potential mechanism of CuFe2O4/MMT-k10 activating PS through free radical quenching tests and XPS analysis. These results reveal that CuFe2O4/MMT-k10 nanocomposite could activate the persulfate, which is an efficient technique for LVF degradation in water.

AbstractThe present study is reporting the influence of the chelating/combustion agents on the magnetic properties of Zn ferrite. Six chelating/combustion agents, citric acid, egg white, tartaric acid, glycine, glucose and urea, were used to obtain monophase zinc nanoferrite via a sol-gel auto-combustion method. The samples were subjected to a comparative study of structural features and magnetic properties by means of infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffractometry, scanning electron microscopy and vibrating sample magnetometry. Significant influence of fuel and combustion mode was observed in the magnetic behavior of as-obtained samples. Values of the structural parameters were discovered to vary as a function of fuel choice, and to obtain crystallite size between 38 and 62 nm, inversion degree between 0.239 and 0.807, lattice parameter between 8.4125 and 8.4432 Å. The optimization of sol-gel method synthesis of zinc ferrite nanoparticles by chosing the appropriate fuel is providing structural and magnetic properties of zinc nanoferrite as potential materials to be used in biomedical applications.

Ni0.6-xZn0.4MgxFe2O4were synthesized by sol-gel auto-combustion method with Zn(NO3.) 2 •6H2O. , Ni(NO3.) )2•6H2O. , Mg(NO3.) )2•6H2O. , Fe(NO3.) )3•9H2O. , COOO2. and NH3•H2O. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysises show that the sample is single phase and the doping of magnesium makes no difference to nickel-zinc ferrite’s crystal structure; nickel-zinc ferrite has formed after auto-combustion. Scanning electron microscope analysises show that after sintered the sample’s size is more even and the doping of magnesium makes the size smaller and more even too.

Magnetically active nickel doped zinc ferrite nanoparticles with chemical composition NixZn1-xFe2O4 (x- 0.0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and 1.0) were successfully synthesized by sol-gel auto-combustion method using high purity metal nitrates and ethylene glycol as gelling agent. The prepared samples were characterized by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) and Fourier Transform Infra-Red spectral (FTIR) analyses. TEM images and particle size distribution profile reveals the agglomeration tendency during nickel doping suggest the magnetic nature of particles. The remarkable change in the magnetic behaviour of nickel doped zinc ferrite samples provide an easy recovery and regeneration of the material and thus making an excellent candidate for benzylation reaction without any remarkable fall in the catalytic performance for repeated cycles.

Zinc ferrite (ZnFe2O4) nanoparticles were prepared by combustion method. The FT-IR, XRD and SEM with EDS were used to characterize the prepared sample. The characterization results confirm the successful synthesis of ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles with the particle size range of 24 – 30 nm. The temperature dependent DC conductivity of the sample has been studied in the temperature range 30-175 °C and AC conductivity was investigated between the frequencies of 10 Hz and 10 MHz. DC conductivity of the sample was increased while increasing temperature and AC conductivity was increased as the frequency increased.
