SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZARTION OF MAGNETIC NANOPARTICLES OF FeCo WITH CORE-SHELL STRUCTURE PRODUCED BY SOL-GEL-PROTEIC METHOD

The core–shell structure composite magnetic nanoparticles (NPs), Fe3O4@chitosan@nimodipine (Fe3O4@CS@NMDP), were successfully synthesized by a chemical cross-linking method in this paper. NMDP is widely used for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease prevention and treatment, while CS is of biocompatibility. The composite particles were characterized by an X-ray diffractometer (XRD), a Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), a transmission electron microscopy (TEM), a vibrating sample magnetometers (VSM) and a high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The results show that the size of the core–shell structure composite particles is ranging from 12[Formula: see text]nm to 20[Formula: see text]nm and the coating thickness of NMDP is about 2[Formula: see text]nm. The saturation magnetization of core–shell composite NPs is 46.7[Formula: see text]emu/g, which indicates a good potential application for treating cancer by magnetic target delivery. The release percentage of the NMDP can reach 57.6% in a short time of 20[Formula: see text]min in the PBS, and to 100% in a time of 60[Formula: see text]min, which indicates the availability of Fe3O4@CS@NMDP composite NPs for targeting delivery treatment.

The core-shell structure of dye-silica nanoparticle has been prepared. The dye-silica nanoparticle can be used as a substitute of fluorescent dye for bio analysis. The hybrid organicinorganic nanoparticle was prepared by sol-gel process using organic modified silane as the coupling agent for flourescent dye and silica. The size of the particle was about 50 nm, which was measured by DLS and confirmed by SEM photograph. The fluorescent dye (fluorescein-5-maleimide) was reacted with (3-mercaptopropyl) trimethoxy silane to produce dye-silane compound, followed by the sol-gel reaction with tetraethoxysilane(TEOS) and water to produce core-shell structure. The fluorescent spectrum showed that the fluorescent intensity of dye-silica nanoparticle was higher than that of fluorescent dye.

The core-shell structure NiFe2O4@TiO2 nanoparticles was successfully prepared using a sol-gel method, the influence of shell thickness and calcination temperatures on the composition, microstructure, magnetic properties and visible-light catalytic activity of the nanoparticles was studied by XRD, TEM, Uv–vis, vibrating sample magnetometer, etc. Results showed the main composition of core in NiFe2O4@TiO2 was spinel ferrite, and the shell was anatase TiO2, and theshell thickness increased significantly with the increase of TiO2 content, ranging from 10nm to 50nm. The Ms and Mr of nanoparticles decreased with the increase of TiO2 content, and no obvious reaction between the magnetic core and shell occurred; visible-light degradation percent of NiFe2O4@TiO2 nanoparticles increased along with the increase of TiO2 content, whereas the recovery rate of it decreased. Degradation percent and the recovery percent of NiFe2O4@TiO2-50 still reached 93.7% and 90.5%, even after 10 cycle times, respectively, possessing the excellent long-term stability.

Core Shell Structure

This paper describes a novel method of synthesizing Fe3O4-SiO2-TiO2functional nanoparticles with the core-shell structure. The Fe3O4cores which were mainly superparamagnetic were synthesized through a novel carbon reduction method. The Fe3O4cores were then modified with SiO2and finally encapsulated with TiO2by the sol-gel method. The results of characterizations showed that the encapsulated 700 nm Fe3O4-SiO2-TiO2particles have a relatively uniform size distribution, an anatase TiO2shell, and suitable magnetic properties for allowing collection in a magnetic field. These magnetic properties, large area, relative high saturation intensity, and low retentive magnetism make the particles have high dispersibility in suspension and yet enable them to be recovered well using magnetic fields. The functionality of these particles was tested by measuring the photocatalytic activity of the decolouring of methyl orange (MO) and methylene blue (MB) under ultraviolet light and sunlight. The results showed that the introduction of the Fe3O4-SiO2-TiO2functional nanoparticles significantly increased the decoloration rate so that an MO solution at a concentration of 10 mg/L could be decoloured completely within 180 minutes. The particles were recovered after utilization, washing, and drying and the primary recovery ratio was 87.5%.

Chemical Coprecipitation Method

Fe3O4@chitosan (CS)@Gefitinib (GFTN) core-shell structure composite magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared by chemical coprecipitation method in this study. In addition, protamine was doped in Fe3O4 cores to prepare Fe3O4@protamine@CS@GFTN core-shell structure composite NPs, in order to increase the loading of GFTN in composite NPs. They were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and spectrophotometer. The results show that the average size of Fe3O4@CS@GFTN and Fe3O4@protamine@CS@GFTN composite NPs is approximately 19 and 21[Formula: see text]nm, respectively. The saturation magnetizations of composite magnetic NPs and corresponding magnetic fluids are 57.20, 20.79, 59.58 and 19.75[Formula: see text]emu/g, respectively. The loading of GFTN in composite NPs was measured by a spectrophotometer to be about 13.5% and 27.6%, respectively. The addition of protamine increased the loading of GFTN two times, indicating that it will play an important role in the management of lung diseases.

Core Shell Structure

Abstract Nano-sized lanthanum hexaboride (LaB6)@ titanium dioxide (TiO2) particles with a core–shell structure has been successfully synthesized via a simple sol–gel method. LaB6@TiO2 particles were used as filler in polyvinyl butyral (PVB) matrix and performance of the TiO2 shell was evaluated. The core–shell nanoparticles were characterized for morphology and structure properties. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscope testing results confirm the formation of LaB6–TiO2 core–shell structure. In composite film, LaB6 improved the thermo-decomposing temperature of PVB matrix from 369.2 to 372.8°C, while the same amount of LaB6@TiO2 further increased the temperature to 381.0°C. In addition, TiO2 shell redshifted the maximum transmittance of the film from 605 to 669 nm in the visible region. In the near infrared region, its absorption peak shifted from 1,466 to 1,476 nm. This result will be helpful for the development of transparent and thermal insulating materials.
