Abstract

The present study reports a facile technique for the synthesis of crystalline super paramagnetic nano ferrite (Fe3O4) particles using diethyl amine as a soft template. The spectral properties of Fe3O4 nanoparticles were characterized by UV–visible and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopies while the crystalline structure and particle size was estimated using X-Ray diffraction (XRD) as well as transmission electron microscopy (TEM) techniques. The super paramagnetic behavior of Fe3O4 nanoparticles was determined using vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) at 300 K. The results of the studies revealed that this technique could be adopted to synthesize agglomerate free super paramagnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles which may find potential application in the filed of biosensor and corrosion protective coatings.
