Various Magnetic Properties of Magnetite Nanoparticles Synthesized from Iron-Sands by Coprecipitation Method at Room Temperature

Abstract:

Natural sand-based magnetite nanoparticles have been succesfully synthesized by coprecipitation method at room temperature. Magnetite nanoparticles were investigated by X-ray Diffractometer (XRD) and Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM). The morphology of magnetite nanoparticles has been evaluated by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). Qualitative analysis of XRD data reveals that the structure of magnetite nanoparticles have the same phase of ICSD No. 82237. On the other hand, quantitative analysis shows that the crystallite size of magnetite nanoparticles have ranges between 8.89 nm to 12.49 nm. The average diameter of magnetite nanoparticles increase with the increase the stirring rate of reaction when the stirring rate is lower than 1000 rpm, while the crystallite size of magnetite particles decrease with the increase the stirring rate when the stirring rate is higher than 1000 rpm. The stirring rate of reaction influence the the magnetic properties of magnetite nanoparticles. The results of the best magnetic respon are revealed for the stirring rate of 1000 rpm with the larger the crystallite size of magnetite nanoparticles due to its stronger saturation magnetization.
