METHOD FOR OBTAINING NANOPARTICLES OF IRON-CONTAINING OXIDES AND STUDYING THEIR PROPERTIES

Abstract

The synthesis of iron-containing oxide nanoparticles is of interest in medicine, electronics and ecology due to their unique physical and chemical properties, such as magnetic, catalytic and adsorption properties, which allow their use in various technological processes. In this regard, this article presents the results of obtaining nanoparticles of iron-containing oxides and studying their physical and chemical properties. It is known that stabilization with natural polymers is of great importance in the production of metal nanoparticles. Therefore, in this work, the synthesis is carried out at high temperature by stabilization with potassium humate. To study the properties of the resulting iron-containing nanoparticles, methods of X-ray phase analysis, transmission electron microscopy and infrared spectroscopy were used. As a result of physicochemical studies, the heterogeneity and monodispersity of the synthesized metal nanoparticles was established. The average particle size of the synthesized samples was 8.3 nm, the crystal lattice parameter was 0.8426 nm. The result of the study using IR spectroscopy confirms the assumption of oxidation of the samples. In addition, it was found that the prepared samples have a high degree of crystallization. Transmission electron microscopy revealed no differences in the sizes of nanoparticles. Pure iron oxide is not formed during the synthesis of iron nanoparticles using the method used in the research work. The unique properties of iron-containing oxide nanoparticles obtained as a result of research are promising for the creation of innovative technologies and solutions aimed at improving the quality of life and sustainable development of society.
