“…For the all NPs, the spinel structure of Fe 3 O 4 was observed. The peak positions were observed at 30.0, 35.5, 43.0, 53.6, 57.1, and 62.7°, which were indexed as (220), (311), (400), (422), (511), and (440), respectively (JCPDS Card: 19–29) . These results indicated that the Fe 3 O 4 NPs were successfully incorporated in the synthetic procedure and the crystal structure of Fe 3 O 4 was maintained after coating of MIP layer.…”
