Abstract
A method for simple and fast (30–60 s) synthesis of spherical “Fe3O4 core–carbon shell” structures by atmospheric pressure aerosol pyrolysis of benzoic acid in dimethylformamide solutions containing dispersed Fe3O4 nanoparticles is described. It has been experimentally shown that it is possible to control both the size of the core–shell particles and the size of Fe3O4 grains and their amount in the particle core by the variation of benzoic acid concentration in solution and using pre-stabilized by mannitol iron oxide nanoparticles. It has been found that particles with an average size of 250–350 nm are formed at the concentration of benzoic acid in the range 0.5–1 mol/L. At a concentration of about 1 mol/L, preliminary stabilization of iron oxide nanoparticles by mannitol with a size of about 180 nm is performed.
