A unique hexagonal sheet-shaped NiO/CoO/Fe2O3 composite with irregularly shaped nanoparticles was fabricated for the first time through a simple co-precipitation and hydrothermal method. The NiO/CoO/Fe2O3 composite was characterized by numerous techniques (TEM, HRTEM, PXRD, EDX, ICP-AES, BET, and XPS) to confirm its structure and composition. This structure of the NiO/CoO/Fe2O3 composite may en...

In this work, γ-Fe2O3@KSF as a stable heterogeneous and magnetic catalyst was prepared by the successive coating of γ-Fe2O3 shell on KSF core. The prepared reagent was characterized using different methods including FT-IR, XRD, TGA and SEM techniques and used for the one-pot synthesis of pyrano-pyrimidinone derivatives. All reactions were performed under mild conditions, during short reaction t...

Herein we examined the toxicity, penetration properties and ability of Fe2O3·nH2O magnetic nanoparticles extracted from silt of the Borovoye Lake (Krasnoyarsk, Russia) to bind an antibiotic. Experimental studies were carried out using magnetic nanoparticles alone and after antibiotic exposure in tissue samples from nasal mucosa, cartilage and bone (in vitro). Toxicity of particles was studied i...

Two series of Fe2O3/TiO2 samples were prepared via impregnation and photodeposition methods. The effect of preparation method on the properties and performance of Fe2O3/TiO2 for photocatalytic degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) under UV light irradiation was examined. The Fe2O3/TiO2 nanocomposites prepared by impregnation showed lower activity than the unmodified TiO2, mainly...

α-Fe2O3 (hematite) nanoparticles were synthesized using tragacanth gel as biotemplate andiron chloride as the iron source by the sol-gel method. This method has many advantages suchas nontoxic, economic viability, ease to scale up, less time consuming and environmentalfriendly approach for the synthesis of α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles without using any organicchemicals. Nanoparticles were characterize...
