Abstract:

MnZn Spinel ferrite with the chemical formula of MnxZn1-xFe2O4 (x = 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0) were synthesized by a sol-gel auto-combustion method. Structural and morphological properties of synthesized samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Field Emission Microscopy (FESEM). XRD patterns revealed characteristic peaks corresponding to spinel Mn-Zn ferrite structures. In addition, the structural analysis demonstrates that the average crystallite size of the synthesized samples varied in the range of 30.0-40.0 nm. The FESEM micrographs reveal agglomerated particles with particles size ranging from 60-80nm. Interfacial tension (IFT) and contact angle measurement for MnZn ferrite nanofluids were performed. The results showed that the use of MnZn ferrite nanofluid significantly decrease the oil-water IFT and contact angle.
