Abstract
In this paper, polyacrylamide (PAM)-modified magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles were prepared by in situ polymerization in aqueous solution. The particle size, morphology, crystal phase and magnetic properties were measured utilizing scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), respectively. The size distribution and stability of the nanoparticles in aqueous solution were evaluated using the laser particle size analyzer and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis). The influences of the dose of acrylamide (AM) and the pH value on the particle size and stability were also examined. The results showed that the Fe3O4 nanoparticles possessed superparamagnetic property and super dispersion stability in aqueous solution after PAM modification.
