Abstract:We report a simple hydrothermal synthesis of carbon nanotube/nickel ferrite (CNT/NiFe2O4) nanocomposites. The CNTs used in this work were pretreated with nitric acid. The evolution of the synthesis of the CNT/NiFe2O4 nanocomposites was studied using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. The results suggest that NiFe2O4 nanoparticles were synthesized in situ on the CNT surface. Vibrating-sample magnetometer measurements s… Show more
