AB  - In this work, we present the magnetic and structural properties of α-Fe 2 O 3 nanoparticles synthesized by the hydrothermal synthesis method. XRD, FTIR and Raman spectroscopy indicate that the samples consist of single-phase α-Fe 2 O 3 nanoparticles. A microstructural analysis by TEM and SEM shows: (i) irregular nanoparticles (∼50 nm), (ii) plate-like nanoparticles (with thickness t∼10 nm and diameter d∼50–80 nm) and (iii) microsized ellipsoid 3D superstructures (with length l∼3.5 and diameter d∼1.5 μm) composed of nanosized building blocks (∼50 nm). We used circularity, elongation and convexity measures to quantitatively analyze the shape of the particles. Irregular hematite nanoparticles were synthesized using a water solution of ferric precursor and sodium acetate during the hydrothermal reaction (reaction conditions: T = 180 °C, t = 12 h). The same hydrothermal reaction temperature, reaction duration and ferric precursor (without sodium acetate) were used for synthesizing hematite ellipsoid 3D superstructures. Addition of urea and glycine surfactants in hydrothermal reaction resulted in the formation of nanoplate hematite particles. The role of these surfactants on the structure and morphology of the particles was also investigated. Magnetic measurements at the room temperature displayed a wide range of coercivities, from H C = 73 Oe for irregular nanoparticles, H C = 689 Oe for nanoplates to H C = 2688 Oe for hematite ellipsoid 3D superstructures. The measured coercivity for the ellipsoid superstructure was about 35 times higher than in the case of irregular hematite nanoparticles and about 4 times than the coercivity of hematite nanoplates. Magnetic properties of synthesized samples were related to their structure and morphology. We conclude that shape anisotropy influenced enhancement of the coercivity in hematite nanoplates whereas hematite ellipsoid 3D superstructure (nanoparticle clusters) induced the formation of multidomain magnetic structure and highest coercivity revealing its superior structure for enhanced magnetic properties. The synthesized hematite nanoparticle structures exhibit low cytotoxicity levels on the human lung fibroblasts (MRC5) cell line demonstrating a safe use of these nanoparticles for practical applications. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.

AB  - Hematite core-shell nanoparticles with plate-like morphology were synthesized using a one-step hydrothermal synthesis. An XRPD analysis indicates that the sample consist of single-phase α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles. SEM and TEM measurements show that the hematite sample is composed of uniform core-shell nanoplates with 10–20 nm thickness, 80–100 nm landscape dimensions (aspect ratio ∼5) and 3–4 nm thickness of the surface shells. We used computational methods for the quantitative analysis of the core–shell particle structure and circularity shape descriptor for the quantitative shape analysis of the nanoparticles from TEM micrographs. The calculated results indicated that a percentage of the shell area in the nanoparticle area (share [%]) is significant. The determined values of circularity in the perpendicular and oblique perspective clearly show shape anisotropy of the nanoplates. The magnetic properties revealed the ferromagnetic-like properties at room temperature with high coercivity HC = 2340 Oe, pointing to the shape and surface effects. These results signify core-shell hematite nanoparticles’ for practical applications in magnetic devices. The synthesized hematite plate-like nanoparticles exhibit low cytotoxicity levels on the human lung fibroblasts (MRC5) cell line demonstrating the safe use of these nanoparticles for biomedical applications.

AB  - Magnetic properties of Fe2O3/SiO2 samples were studied after being produced by sol-gel synthesis and formation of epsilon-Fe2O3 polymorph. Samples were thermally treated, using different annealing temperatures and annealing times. The size and morphological characteristics of the iron oxide nanoparticles were examined using a TEM microscope. We used the ellipticity of shapes, which is a measure of how much the shape of a nanoparticle differs from a perfect ellipse, in order to quantitatively describe morphological properties of nanoparticles. Coercivity measurements were used to identify and monitor the formation of the epsilon-iron oxide phase during the thermal treatments (annealing). Coercivity values were in the range from 1.2 to 15.4 kOe, which is in accordance with previous experience regarding the existence of epsilon-Fe2O3. We have determined the optimal formation conditions for the epsilon-Fe2O3 polymorph (t=1050 degrees C for 7 h, H-c=15.4 kOe), as well as the narrow temperature interval (1050-1060 C) in which the polymorph abruptly vanished (H-c=2300 Oe), on the basis of results of the magnetic properties. The threshold temperature for the epsilon-Fe2O3 phase transformation was measured as 1060 degrees C. We found that different annealing temperatures and annealing times significantly affected magnetic properties of the examined samples.
