Electrodeposition of micro-nano size Fe3O4 crystals anchored on flexible buckypaper

Abstract

Magnetite (Fe 3 O 4 ) particles have been electrochemically synthesized on self-supported carbon nanofiber (CNF) buckypaper. The Fe 3 O 4 crystals can be obtained by electrodeposition within a certain potential window with particle size controlled by the deposition time and confirmed by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), x-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The magnetic properties of the Fe 3 O 4 buckypaper composite materials demonstrated a well-defined particle structure had been achieved. Electrochemical synthesis has been proven to be a cost-effective, high throughput, and highly efficient approach in fabricating Fe 3 O 4 /buckypaper composite nanostructures.

Electrosynthesis of Superhydrophilic Nickel Nanosheets on a Three-Dimensional Microporous Template: Applicability toward MOR

“…This morphology has also been reported in other studies containing iron and nickel concurrently. ,, In the report of Qiong et al, nanosheet morphology has been substantially intensified by including iron cations in the dipping bath . This morphology has appeared in numerous cases concerning the electrodeposition of iron and iron-containing products, suggesting that iron itself is somehow responsible for nanosheets in the present study. − …”

Fabrication of hematite (α-Fe 2 O 3 ) nanoparticles using electrochemical deposition

“…4 shows the results. The results could indicate the nucleation formation and the growth mode of α-Fe 2 O 3 nanoparticles [31]. In the growth mode, the nucleus density of α-Fe 2 O 3 nanoparticles was kept approximately unchanged.…”

“…Schrebler et al electrodeposited amorphous and nanocrystalline α-Fe 2 O 3 thin films on F-doping tin oxide covered glass substrates [11]. Li et al reported the electrodeposition of micro-nano sized Fe 3 O 4 crystals on self-supported carbon nanofiber buckypapers [31]. Pérez-Villar et al reported the pulsed electrodeposition technique to prepare iron oxide films without any additional annealing [32].…”
