One of the most important directions for environmental remediation is effective removal dyes and toxic heavy metals from water using newly fabricated nanoadsorbents. Here, magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles were combined with nitrogen-containing functional group polymers chitosan (CS) polypyrrole (ppy) to synthesize a nanocomposite (polypyrrole@magnetic chitosan) useful removing methyl orange (MO) he...

Modified rice straw/Fe3O4/polycaprolactone nanocomposites (ORS/Fe3O4/ PCL-NCs) have been prepared for the first time using a solution casting method. The RS/Fe3O4-NCs were modified with octadecylamine (ODA) as an organic modifier. The prepared NCs were characterized by using X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Thermogravime...

Multifunctional folic acid conjugated BSA@Fe3O4 microcapsules (FA-BSA@Fe3O4 MCs) have been prepared successfully based on the sonochemical method. The as-synthesized FA-BSA@Fe3O4 MCs have a suitable size range for biomedical applications, and a high loading capacity for water-insoluble drugs. Furthermore, FA-BSA@Fe3O4 MCs show excellent magnetic properties. Cytotoxicity tests indicate that FA-B...

Fe(3)O(4) nanoprisms, synthesized by a solvothermal process, exhibited crystal plane dependent electrochemical activities, which opens an approach to nanoscale materials with controlled electrochemical properties.

We present a systematic study on the preparation, characteration and potential application of Fe3O4 and Fe3O4@SiO2 nanoparticles. Fe3O4 nanoparticles of controllable diameters were successfully synthesized by solvothermal system with tuning pH. The magnetic properties of nanoparticles were measured by vibration sample magnetometer. Fe3O4@ SiO2 nanoparticles were obtained via classic Stöber proc...

magnetic nanoparticles are the good choice for using in mri as the contrast agent. iron oxide particles such as magnetite (fe3o4) or its oxidized form maghemite (γ-fe2o3) are the most commonly employed in biomedical applications. in this study, we synthesized and optimized the preparation of chitosan manganese-ferrite nanoparticles (cmn-fe nps) and evaluated its ability for the mice macrophage ...

The Fe3O4/CeO2 magnetic photocatalyst was prepared by coating directly onto the surface of magnetic Fe3O4 particles. However a direct contact of CeO2 onto the surface of magnetic Fe3O4 particles presented unfavorable heterojunction, thus the SiO2 barrier layer between magnetic Fe3O4 and CeO2 was prepared as a core-shell stucture to reduce the negative effect by combining three steps of the hydr...

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 ...

Multifunctional nanocomposites that have multiple therapeutic functions together with real-time imaging capabilities have attracted intensive concerns in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. This study developed epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) antibody-directed polydopamine-coated Fe3O4 nanoparticles (Fe3O4@PDA NPs) for magnetic resonance imaging and antitumor chemo-photothermal thera...
