Study of the growth of hydrophilic iron oxide nanoparticles obtained via the non-aqueous sol–gel method
Source abstract
Abstract
The growth process of hydrophilic iron oxide nanoparticles synthesized via the non-aqueous sol–gel method using TEG as high-boiling solvent has been characterized. A model of the growth process is presented, based on a combination of analytical methods, especially XRD, SAXS and TGA. In contrast to previously studied particles synthesized in benzyl alcohol, which grow via nucleation, particles synthesized in TEG grow via a sol–gel-like process. In a first step, an amorphous network is formed, and subsequently, during the compaction of the network, crystalline particles are obtained. The influence of the structural properties on the magnetic behavior was identified by combining various spectroscopic methods.
