نانوذرات آهن-مگنتیت

Magnetite is a very common iron oxide (Fe3O4) mineral that is found in igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks. It is the most commonly mined ore of iron. It is also the mineral with the highest iron content (72.4%). An oversimplified synthesis reaction (Figure 1) demonstrates the chemical makeup of the compound [1], [2].

Cubic inverse spinel magnetite (Fe3O4) is one of the most researched magnetic materials. This oxide is widely used in magnetic biomedicine, heavy metal ions removal, electromagnetic wave absorption and other fields. This growing interest of Fe3O4 is due to its unique characteristic such as strong magnetism, long durability, good biocompatibility, low toxicity and low cost [3], [4].

Structural

Magnetite’s crystal structure follows an inverse spinel pattern with alternating octahedral and tetrahedral-octahedral layers. From Figure 2 (b), ferrous species are observed to occupy half of the octahedral lattice sites due to greater ferrous crystal field stabilization energy (CFSE); alternatively, ferric species occupy the other octahedral lattice sites and all tetrahedral lattice sites and oxygen forms an fcc closed-pack structure [5], [6].Figure 3 shows the XRD peaks of α-Fe2O3, Fe3O4 and γ-Fe2O3 [7].
