Abstract

In this study, an innovative synthesis process has been developed to produce hydroxyapatite-magnesium ferrite (HA-MgFe2O4) nanocomposite. In addition, the effect of calcination temperature on drug delivery behavior of produced samples was investigated. HA-MgFe2O4 nanocomposite was prepared via one-step modified reverse microemulsion synthesis route. The resulting products were characterized by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller surface area analysis (BET). The calcined samples at 500 and 700°C demonstrated mesoporous characteristics and large specific surface areas of 88 and 32m2/g, respectively. TEM and VSM results showed that the nanocomposite calcined at 700°C has core–shell morphology and a maximum saturation magnetization of 9.47emug−1.
