Abstract
In this paper, we successfully synthesize Fe(OH)(3) nanotubes involving the Kirkendall effect. Depending on the calcination conditions, both haematite and magnetite nanotubes are produced. This approach also provides a new synthetic alternative to nanotubes of nonlamellar-structured materials. The as-synthesized magnetite nanotubes have an application as a magnetic resonance imaging contrast agent.
