Self-Assembled Core-Shell Fe3O4@SiO2 Nanoparticles with High Magnetic Sensitivity from Electrospun Fibers
Abstract:
Nanofibers composed of the hydrophilic polymer polyvinylpyrrolidone K90 (PVP), cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and Fe3O4 were fabricated using an electrospinning process. As a result of the templating and confinement properties of the nanfibers, silica coated magnetite (Fe3O4@SiO2) core-shell nanoparticles (NPs) with high magnetic sensitivity were spontaneously formed through molecular self-assembly when the fibers were added to 80% aqueous ethanol (PH=9.0). The typical saturation magnetization of the Fe3O4@SiO2 composite particles is up to 43.8 emu/g, with superparamagnetic properties being observed at room temperature. Since the nanoparticles have high magnetic sensitivity and are prepared via a facile and convenient strategy, they have much promise in a range of practical applications.
