Abstract
To investigate the role of magnetic anisotropy on magnetic hyperthermia heating efficiency at low field conditions, Mn, MnZn, and MnCo-ferrite nanoparticles were synthesized using the hydrothermal method. The coercive field temperature dependence method was used to determine the blocking temperature distribution of the particles by considering the temperature dependence of anisotropy and magnetization and the random anisotropy axis configuration. The data allowed one to estimate the room-temperature quasi-static superparamagnetic diameter, which was found to be lower than the theoretical value. Magnetic hyperthermia experiments of the magnetic nanocolloids at 522 kHz indicated that soft nanomagnets heat more efficiently at clinically relevant conditions. The heating performance was found to decrease at the higher fraction of blocked nanoparticles. For instance, samples with similar size distribution and mean diameter of 10 nm, at a field amplitude of only 120 Oe (9.6 kA m–1), showed a decrease of specific...
