Abstract
High-performance nanosized Fe3O4 magnetic fluids are prepared by chemical co-precipitate method. The microstructure of magnetic fluids is characterized using a transmission electron microscope (TEM) and high-resolution microscope (HREM). The results are satisfactory. The nanosized magnetic particles have diameter of 8–10 nm and the minimum diameter is 4 nm, belonging to super-paramagnetic material. The nanosized magnetic particles crystallized completely and have clear crystal boundary. The surfactant used in the test coats the magnetic particles homogeneously and forms a uniform and complete elastic spherical shell of amorphous phase around the magnetic particles. The study proves that the incrusting layer of surfactant has the protective effect and stable effect on the magnetic particles. These effects can enhance and maintain the magnetic properties of the magnetic fluids effectively.
