Abstract:By studying the response
behavior of ferrofluids of 6–22
nm maghemite nanoparticles in glycerol solution exposed to external
magnetic fields, we demonstrate the ability of Mössbauer spectroscopy
to access a variety of particle dynamics and static magnetic particle
characteristics at the same time, offering an extensive characterization
of ferrofluids for in-field applications; field-dependent particle
alignment and particle mobility in terms of Brownian motion have been
extracted simultaneously from a series … Show more
“…This results in a magnetic anisotropy energy of 27 kJ m −3 , which is comparable to previously reported values for similar particles 51,52 and significantly larger than the maghemite magnetocrystalline anisotropy of K = 4.7 kJ m −3 obtained from measurements on single crystal films and powders. 53 The close proximity of the splitting of the curves to the maximum of the ZFC curve points to a narrow particle size distribution 50 which is consistent with the results obtained from SAXS experiments.…”
Iron oxide nanoparticles are presently considered as main work horses for various applications including targeted drug delivery and magnetic hyperthermia. Several questions remain unsolved regarding the effect of size onto...

“…Different methodologies have been developed in this respect in the last years, according to reports. [242][243][244] 3.4 Magneto-optics: light scattering Transmission electron microscopy investigations are limited to highly diluted and dried/vitrified samples; therefore, these refer mainly to particle size distributions, without details concerning structuring processes themselves, which require the use of various scattering techniques (Fig. 13).…”
Ferrofluids investigated along about five decades are ultrastable colloidal suspensions of magnetic nanoparticles which manifest simultaneously fluid and magnetic properties. Their magnetically controllable and tunable feature proved to be from...
“…This will strongly reduce the microgel particle net magnetic moment m MG $ ffiffiffiffi N p Á m MNP À Á , as is sometimes observed in magnetic nanoparticle agglomerates. 57,58 Thereby, the distribution extracted from the phenomenological model cannot be converted easily into a number distribution of MNPs in a specific state of confinement. For this, further knowledge about the microgels' magnetic structure including nanoparticle interaction effects and nanoparticle rheology would be required.…”
The paper addresses coupling of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) with the polymer matrix of temperature-sensitive microgels and their response to magnetic fields.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
