Abstract
In this work, the coprecipitation method was used to prepare the magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles which were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The particle size and saturation magnetization of Fe3O4 nanoparticles were significant effected by temperature and the precipitant's precipitation time. Under the reaction temperature of 40 °C and the dropping time of 10 h, the size and the saturation magnetization of magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles were 9.4 nm and 37.5 emu/g, severally. Besides, the magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles were also resoundingly modified with silica (SiO2), chitosan (CS) and sodium alginate (SA). And the hydrodynamic diameters of the Fe3O4/CS micro-composites and Fe3O4/SA micro-composites in aqueous solution were 1.16 μm and 2.11 μm, respectively.
