Abstract

Abstract Core-shell structured magnetic Ni/NiO powders were prepared by a proteic sol-gel route. Commercial gelatin and nickel nitrate were used as precursor materials. The synthesized material was calcined in air at 500 °C and further investigated by XRD, VSM and TEM. In order to investigate the effects of the structure on the magnetic properties, NiO powders were synthesized by three other methods for sake of comparison: citrate method, nitrate calcination and combustion method. XRD results revealed that the core-shell structured material is composed of 84.8 wt% NiO and 15.2 wt% Ni, while the samples from other methods are single phase. Hysteresis loop at room temperature showed a strong ferromagnetic behavior for samples prepared by proteic sol-gel and citrate methods. Powders from nitrate calcination and combustion showed weak ferromagnetic behavior most likely attributed to unpaired moments in their nanoparticles. The overall results showed that the proteic sol-gel method is a versatile chemical way to prepare Ni/NiO core-shell powders with high ferromagnetic signals.
