Abstract:

In this study, we reported a facile synthesis of bimetallic FeCo nanoparticles (Fe-Co NPs) by FeSO4.7H2O and Co(Ac)2.4H2O in the presence of sodium borohydride and 2-thiotic acid. The structure and morphology of the nanoparticles were characterized by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). These small, spherical shape and pure phase FeCo bimetallic nanoparticles have saturation magnetization up to 221 emu/g. The results suggest that the long term stable and high saturation magnetization (Ms) FeCo nanoparticles can be used for data storage, catalysis, environmental remediation, high-performance inductors, magnetic hyperthermia treatment and magnetic resonance imaging applications.

Bimetallic Nanoparticles as Efficient Catalysts: Facile and Green Microwave Synthesis

This work deals with the development of a green and versatile synthesis of stable mono- and bi-metallic colloids by means of microwave heating and exploiting ecofriendly reagents: water as the solvent, glucose as a mild and non-toxic reducer and polyvinylpirrolidone (PVP) as the chelating agent. Particle size-control, total reaction yield and long-term stability of colloids were achieved with t...

Synthesis and stabilization of FeCo nanoparticles.

FeCo alloys are an important soft magnetic material because of their unique magnetic properties including large permeability and very high saturation magnetization. FeCo nanoparticles are ideal building blocks for nanostructured thin film or bulk magnetic materials1-3 and are also suitable for biomedical applications.4 However, synthesis of monodisperse FeCo nanoparticles remains a challenging ...

Facile Synthesis of FeCo/Fe3O4 Nanocomposite with High Wave-Absorbing Properties

The FeCo/Fe3O4 nanocomposite was synthesized using the hydrothermal approach, in which the FeCo alloy and Fe3O4 are formed by one step. The structure of the FeCo/Fe3O4 nanocomposite was characterized by means of Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray energy-dispersive spectrometer spectroscopy (EDX). They show that the mass ratio of FeCo/Fe3O4 strongly depends on ...

Synthesis of Bimetallic Platinum Nanoparticles for Biosensors

The use of magnetic nanomaterials in biosensing applications is growing as a consequence of their remarkable properties; but controlling the composition and shape of metallic nanoalloys is problematic when more than one precursor is required for wet chemistry synthesis. We have developed a successful simultaneous reduction method for preparation of near-spherical platinum-based nanoalloys conta...

Chemical Synthesis of High-Stable Amorphous FeCo Nanoalloys with Good Magnetic Properties

It is difficult to fabricate high-purity amorphous FeCo alloys by traditional physical methods due to their weak glass forming ability. In this work, the fully amorphous FeCo nanoalloys with high purity and good stability have been prepared by a direct chemical reduction of Fe2+ and Co2+ ions with NaBH₄ as the reducing agent and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as the surfactant. The morphologies, su...

Facile synthesis of spherical cellulose nanoparticles

A practical procedure for synthesizing cellulose nanospheres with sizes ranging from 60 to over 570 nm was developed. This methodology provides a near linear relationship between cellulose nanoparticle size and treatment time. The hydrolyzed nanocelluloses are predominantly cellulose II polymorphic crystalline structure and relatively uniform in particle size. 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights rese...
