Cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4) possesses excellent chemical stability, good mechanical hardness and a large positive first order crystalline anisotropy constant, which made this ferrite a promising candidate for magneto-optical recording media. In addition to precise control on the composition and structure of CoFe2O4, the success of its practical application will depend on the capability of controll...

The manganese ferrite spinel was synthesized by co-precipitation. The nano sized manganese ferrite characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron micrograph (SEM), tunneling electron micrograph (TEM) and Energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) techniques. The adsorption ability of malachite green (MG) from the aqueous solution by manganese ferrite was investigated. It was found that pH value...

The particle size distribution of the resultant cobalt ferrite samples was determined from Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) images using the granulometry image analysis method. Results showed the nanosized particles of the samples. The X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) patterns of samples were also analyzed by Rietveld refinement method. The results indicated that the precipitated sample at 95 <sup...

The calcium ferrite nano-particles (CaFe2O4 NPs) were synthesized using a sol-gel method for targeted drug delivery application. The proposed nano-particles were initially prepared by mixing calcium and iron nitrates that were added with citric acid in order to prevent agglomeration and subsequently calcined at a temperature of 550°C to obtain small particle size. The prepared nanoparticles wer...

BACKGROUND Magnetic Nanoparticles (MNP) have been used for contrast enhancement in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). In recent years, research on the use of ferrite nanoparticles in T2 contrast agents has shown a great potential application in MR imaging. In this work, Co0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 and Co0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4-DMSA magnetic nanoparticles, CZF-MNPs and CZF-MNPs-DMSA, were investigated as MR imaging co...

Iron cobaltite powders CoxFe3ÿxO4 (1rxr2.46) were synthesized with compositions in between the cobalt ferrite CoFe2O4 and Co2.46Fe0.54O4. The cationic distribution of pure spinel phases was determined by Mössbauer spectroscopy: as Co content increases in the spinel oxide, Co cations replace Fe cations in the octahedral sites and Co cations migrate from octahedral to tetrahedral sites. Saturatio...

Glycine assisted self-combustion method resulted in fabrication of cobalt-manganese ferrite substituted by zinc ( Zn ) element. The as-synthesized Co-Mn was subjected to heat treatment at 600?C and 800?C for 2h. Effects on the structural, morphological, surface magnetic properties ZnCoMn were studied. These characterized using various techniques including TGA-DTGA, FTIR, XRD, SEM, EDX, TEM VSM....
