Abstract
In this work, Fe2N magnetic nanocomposite was synthesized via an in-situ reaction method of ball milling. In this method, Fe and h-BN were used as iron source and nitrogen source, respectively. We found that ball milling could increase the surface energy and make the sample to be amorphous, which is the key factor in synthesizing Fe2N nanocomposite. The as-synthesized nano-sized Fe–N could disperse in the BN matrix uniformly. It is worth noting that we can obtain Fe2N with different grain sizes by controlling the experimental conditions. The saturation magnetization of Fe2N was measured and the value is about 0.03 emu/g. The excellent properties of Fe2N magnetic nanocomposite suggest that Fe2N magnetic nanocomposite could be widely used in industrial application.
