- Co1-xZnxFe2O4 spinel nanoparticles with Zn concentrations of x = 0.0, 0.2 were prepared by a hydrothermal route in the presence of triethylene glycol (TEG). The structural, magnetic, electrical and dielectric properties of the prepared nanoparticles were studied. The XRD results confirmed the formation of single spinel ferrite structure with crystallite size 9 and 10 nm for x = 0.0 and 0.2 compositions respectively. The lattice parameter (a) increased with increasing Zn concentration. Temperature and frequency dependent electrical and dielectric properties of the prepared ferrites have also been investigated. Our findings show that overall conductivity of Co0.8Zn0.2Fe 2O4 nanoparticle is lower than that of CoFe 2O4 and roughly in the range of 10-11-10 -7 S cm-1 depending strongly temperature and frequency owing to the formation of stable electric bonds between the Zn2+ and Fe2+ ions, which localizes Fe2+ charge carriers. The ac conductivity showed a temperature dependent behavior at low frequencies and temperature independent behavior at high frequencies, which is an indication of ionic conductivity. dc conductivity of Co0.8Zn0.2Fe 2O4 nanoparticle are found to obey the Arrhenius plot and can be classified into two regions over with activation energy of 0.113 and 0.163 eV in the ranges of 20-40 °C and 70-120 °C, respectively when CoFe2O4 has an activation energy of 0.245 eV.

- In this study, triethylene glycol (TEG) stabilized superparamagnetic MnFe2O4 nanoparticle (TEG@Mn-Fe2O4) was synthesized via a simple polyol route. Composition of nanoparticle was confirmed as MnFe2O4 and surface conjugation of TEG was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy to be via oxygens on TEG covalently attached to metal centers on the NPs: Vibrating sample magnetometer measurements confirmed the superparamagnetic character of these nanoparticles without reaching to a saturation, and has no coercivity. The TEG@MnFe2O4 nanocomposite showed thermally activated conductivity, significant interfacial polarization effect also in the dielectric permittivity evaluations. Temperature dependency of conductivity is a strong evidence for thermally activated polarization mechanism. dc conductivity is classified into two regions over a limited temperature range and shows maximum conductivity of about 4 x 10(-7) S cm(-1) at 120 degrees C. Temperature and frequency dependence of dielectric permittivity indicated interfacial polarization and temperature-assisted-reorganization effects.

- Nanocrystalline powders of cobalt and aluminum co-substituted zinc ferrites with general formula CoxZn1−xAlFeO4 (x = 0.0–1.0) have been synthesized for the first time. Using the citrate-microwave technique and the citric acid as combustion–complexion agent (fuel), materials with spinel mono-phase cubic spinel structure were successfully prepared. The characterization of products was done by XRD, SEM and VSM. The crystallite size estimated by Scherrer formula has been found in the range of 7.7–9.6 nm. The magnetic properties were studied by room temperature (RT) VSM magnetization measurements. The small remanent magnetization (Mr) and coercivity (Hc) values reveal the superparamagnetic nature of nanoparticles (NPs) at RT. The extrapolated saturation magnetization (Ms) is maximum for Co0.8Zn0.2AlFeO4 (17.15 emu/g) and minimum for ZnAlFeO4 particles (4.22 emu/g). This case is attributed to high or low amount of cation distribution change from normal to mixed spinel structure. The average magnetic diameters (Dmag) were calculated from magnetic fit studies of M–H spectra. Dmag values are between 8.17 and 8.46 nm and this range is in great accordance with the obtained diameters from XRD measurements. The small Mr/Ms ratios (maximum, 0.219) specify the uniaxial anisotropy according to Stoner–Wohlfarth model for CoxZn1−xAlFeO4 NPs. RT effective anisotropy constants (Keff) were calculated by using Ms and Hc values. Keff constants increased with increasing Co content in the spinel NPs.

- Piperidine-4-carboxylic acid (PPCA) functionalized Fe 3O 4 nanoparticles as a novel organic-inorganic hybrid heterogeneous catalyst was fabricated and characterized by XRD, FT-IR, TGA, TEM and VSM techniques. Composition was determined as Fe 3O 4, while particles were observed to have spherical morphology. Size estimations using X-ray line profile fitting (10 nm), TEM (11 nm) and magnetization fitting (9 nm) agree well, revealing nearly single crystalline character of Fe 3O 4 nanoparticles. Magnetization measurements reveal that PPCA functionalized Fe 3O 4 NPs have superparamagnetic features, namely immeasurable coercivity and absence of saturation. Small coercivity is established at low temperatures. The catalytic activity of Fe 3O 4-PPCA was probed through one-pot synthesis of nitro alkenes through Knoevenagel reaction in CH 2Cl 2 at room temperature. The heterogeneous catalyst showed very high conversion rates (97%) and could be recovered easily and reused many times without significant loss of its catalytic activity.
