Electrochemical synthesis of Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles in alkaline aqueous solutions containing complexing agents

Photosynthetic Toxicity and Oxidative Damage Induced by nano-Fe3O4 on <i>Chlorella vulgaris</i> in Aquatic Environment

“…Compared with bulk Fe 3 O 4 , nano-Fe 3 O 4 has unique characteristics as superparamagnetism, size and quantum tunnel effects, and so on [2][3][4][5][6]. As an important member of the spinel ferrite family, Fe 3 O 4 is among the most widely used soft magnetic materials.…”

Multifunctional Nanocomposites Based on Mesoporous Silica: Potential Applications in Biomedicine

“…), Fe 2+ and Fe 3+ ratio, pH, and ionic strength of the media (Gupta & Gupta, 2005). Other methods to prepare magnetite nanoparticles are microemulsion (Liu & Wang, 2004a), electrochemical synthesis (Franger et al, 2004), pyrolysis (Gun'ko et al, 2001), and hydrothermal synthesis (Wu et al, 2005). However, most methods present some synthesis problems, such as difficulties in the prevention of flocculation, the control of Fe 2+ and Fe 3+ ratio in the co-precipitation process, and the removal of surfactants in the micron-emulsion process.…”

Green Synthesis of Superparamagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticle From Ficus Carica Fruit Extract, Characterization Studies and Its Application on Dye Degradation Studies

“…A wide variety of methods have been reported in for the synthesis of Fe 3 O 4 NPs such as microemulsion technique [12], electrochemical route [13], hydrothermal process [14], sonochemical method [15], and co-precipitation method [16]. Nowadays, synthesis of Fe 3 O 4 -NPs using phytochemicals has attracted much attention due to their simplicity, environmental benignity, and low cost.…”
