- Poly(3-thiophene acetic acid)/Fe3O4 nanocomposite is synthesized by the precipitation of Fe3O4 in the presence of poly(3-thiophene acetic acid) (P3TAA). Structural, surface, morphological, thermal properties and conductivity characterization/evaluation of the nanocomposite were performed by XRD, FT-IR, TEM, TGA. and conductivity measurements, respectively. The capping of P3TAA around Fe3O4 nanoparticles was confirmed by FT-IR spectroscopy, the interaction being via bridging oxygens of the carboxylate and the nanoparticle surface through bidentate binding. The crystallite and particle size were obtained as 9 +/- 2 nm and 11 +/- 1 nm from XRD line profile fitting and TEM image analysis, respectively, which reveal nearly single crystalline nature of Fe3O4 nanoparticles. Magnetization measurements reveal that P3TAA coated magnetite particles do not saturate at higher fields. There is no coercivity and remanence revealing superparamagnetic character. Magnetic particle size calculated from the theoretical fitting as 9.1 nm which coincides the values determined from TEM micrographs and XRD line profile fitting. The comparison to the TEM particle size reveals slightly modified magnetically dead nanoparticle surface.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We present a method for the fabrication of PVPA/BaFe12O19 nanocomposite by in-situ polymerization of vinyl phosphonic acid, VPA in the presence of synthesized BaFe12O19 NPs. Nanoparticles and the nanocomposite were analyzed by XRD, FTIR, TGA, SEM, TEM, VSM, and conductivity techniques for structural and physicochemical characteristics. Nanoparticles, identified as BaFe12O19 from XRD analysis, were successfully coated with PVPA and the linkage was assessed to be via P-O bonds. Electron microscopy analysis revealed aggregation of BaFe12O19 particles and dominantly platelet morphology upon composite formation. TGA analysis revealed the composition of the nanocomposite as 65% BaFe12O19 and 35% polymer. Magnetic evaluation revealed that adsorption of PVPA anions during the preparation of the nanocomposite strongly influenced the magnetic properties resulting in much lower saturation magnetization values. DC conductivity measurements were used to calculate activation energy of PVPA/BaFe12O19 nanocomposite and it was obtained as 0.37 eV.

In: Journal of Alloys and Compounds. - : Elsevier BV. - 0925-8388 .- 1873-4669. ; 509:5, s. 2555-2561

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- L-Carnosine coated iron oxide nanoparticles (CCIO NPs) have been prepared via co-precipitation of iron oxide in the presence of L-carnosine. Crystalline phase was identified as magnetite with an average crystallite size of 8 nm as estimated from X-ray line profile fitting. Particle size estimated from TEM by log-normal fitting was similar to 11 nm. FTIR analysis showed that the binding of carnosine onto the surface of iron oxide is through unidentate linkage of carboxyl group. CCIO NPs showed superparamagnetic charactersitic at room temperature. The magnetic core size of superparamagnetic CCIO NPs was found slightly smaller than the size obtained from TEM, due to the presence of magnetically dead layer. Magnetization measurements revealed that L-carnosine iron oxide composite has immeasurable coercivity and remanence with absence of hysteritic behavior, which implies superparamagnetic behavior at room temperature. The low value of saturation magnetization compared to the bulk magnetite has been explained by spin canting. LDH activity tests showed slight cytotoxicity of high dose of CCIO NPs. The ac conductivity of CCIO NPs was found to be greater than that of carnosine and the effective conduction mechanism was found as correlated barrier hopping (CBH). dc activation energy of the product at around room temperature was measured as 0.312 eV which was in good agreement with the earlier reports.

In: Nano-Micro Letters. - 2150-5551. ; 3:2, s. 79-85
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG) assisted hydrothermal route has been used to study the influence of the hydrolyzing agent on the properties of PEG-iron oxide (Fe3O4) nanocomposites. Iron oxide nanoparticles (NPs), as confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis, have been synthesized by a hydrothermal method in which NaOH and NH3 were used as hydrolyzing agents. Formation of PEG-Fe3O4 nanocomposite was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Samples exhibit different crystallite sizes, which estimated based on line profile fitting as 10 nm for NH3 and 8 nm for NaOH hydrolyzed samples. The average particle sizes obtained from transmission electron microscopy was respectively 174 +/- 3 nm for NaOH and 165 +/- 4 nm for NH3 gas hydrolyzed samples. Magnetic characterization results reveal superparamagnetic characteristics despite a large particle size, which indicate the absence of coupling between the nanocrystals due to the presence of polymer in the nanocomposites. The conductivity curve demonstrates that sigma(DC) is strongly temperature dependent.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Polyaniline-Fe3O4 nanocomposite with and without ionic liquid were successfully synthesized via in situ polymerization using cetyl trimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as surfactant. Both TG analysis and FT-IR measurements proved the presence of organic layer on the surface of Fe3O4 nanoparticles. The influence of 1-butyl-3-methyl-imidazolium bromide (BMIMBr) as ionic liquid on the structure, conductivity, and magnetic property of PANI-Fe3O4-CTAB nanocomposite were studied in detail. The results show that imidazolium-based ionic liquids BMIMBr acts as an anchor agent during the formation of PANI-Fe3O4-CTAB nanocomposite. Ionic liquid significantly deteriorated nanocomposite's magnetic properties, and contributed to non-saturated M-H curve due to the disappearance of antiferromagnetic interactions. It has also an improving effect on AC and DC conductivities. The most important effect of IL is observed in real part of permittivity of PANI-Fe3O4-CTAB that it has negative high values at low frequency low temperature region. Due to the negative dielectric constant, material exhibits uncommon properties in electromagnetic waves scattering and attraction between similar charges. This possibility provokes research on these composites as high T superconductors, negative index materials and microwave absorbers.

In: Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials. - : Elsevier BV. - 0304-8853 .- 1873-4766. ; 327, s. 151-158

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) textiles with 2 mm thickness are coated with magnetic nanoparticles in coating baths with Ni, Co and their alloys via an electroless metal deposition method. The crystal structure, morphology and magnetic nature of composites are investigated by X-ray Powder diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscopy, and dc magnetization measurement techniques. The frequency dependent microwave absorption measurements have been carried out in the frequency range of 12.4-18 GHz (X and P bands). Diamagnetic and ferromagnetic properties are also investigated. Finally, the microwave absorption of composites is found strongly dependent on the coating time. One absorption peak is observed between 14.3 and 15.8 GHz with an efficient absorption bandwidth of 3.3-4.1 GHz (under -20 dB reflection loss limit). The Reflection loss (RL) can be achieved between -30 and -50 dB. It was found that the RL is decreasing and absorption bandwidth is decreasing with increasing coating time. While absorption peak moves to lower frequencies in Ni coated PAN textile, it goes higher frequencies in Co coated ones. The Ni-Co alloy coated composites have fluctuating curve of absorption frequency with respect to coating time. These results encourage further development of magnetic nanoparticle coated textile absorbers for broadband applications.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We report on the synthesis of (polyvinylpyrrolidone) PVP-Mn3O4 nanocomposite via a polyol route. Crystalline phase was identified as Mn3O4 and the crystallite size was obtained as 6 +/- 1 nm from X-ray line profile fitting. Average particle size of 6.1 +/- 0.1 nm obtained from TEM analysis reveals nearly single crystalline nature of these nanoparticles in the composite. The capping of PVP around Mn3O4 nanoparticles was confirmed by FT-IR spectroscopy, the interaction being via bridging oxygens of the carbonyl (C=O) and the nanoparticle surface. T-C and T-B for PVP-Mn3O4 nanocomposite were observed at 42K and 28.5 K, respectively. The sample has hysteresis with small coercivity and remanent magnetization at 40K, resembling the superparamagnetic state. ac conductivity measurements on PVP-Mn3O4 nanocomposite revealed a conductivity in the order of 10(-7) S cm(-1) at lower frequencies. The conductivity change with respect to frequency can be explained by electronic exchange occurring between Mr(+2) and Mn+3 existing in sublattice of spinel lattice.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We report on the synthesis of Mn3O4 nanoparticles via a two-step hydrothermal route by using Mn(CH3COO)(2) as the only starting material and TMAOH and NaOH as hydrolysing agents. XRD and FT-IR analyses confirmed the composition and structure of Mn3O4. TEM images showed that spheroid Mn3O4 nanostructures obtained by this method have average particle size of 6 and 14 nm for NaOH and TMAOH hydrolyzed samples respectively. Particle size analysis indicated a strong aggregation of nanoparticles and exhibited bi-modal distribution with average size of aggregates as similar to 250 nm and 1.1 mu m for both samples. Zeta potential analysis revealed adsorbed TMAOH species on the surface of Mn3O4 nanoparticles hydrolyzed using TMAOH. ESR analyses resulted in broader lines and smaller g values than bulk Mn3O4 nanoparticles, probably due to the exchange-coupled system with unlike spins such as canted spin at surface of high-surface-disordered nanoparticles.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We are reporting on the synthesis of Mn3O4 nanoparticles and CTAB-Mn3O4 nanocomposites via a sonochemical route using MnCl2, ethanol, NaOH and CTAB. The crystalline phase was identified as Mn3O4. The crystallite size of the CTAB-Mn3O4 nanocomposite was identified as 13 +/- 5 nm from X-ray line profile fitting and the particle size from TEM was 107.5 +/- 1.4 nm. The interaction between CEAB and the Mn3O4 nanoparticles was investigated by FTIR and H-1 NMR spectroscopies. Two different magnetic phase transitions were observed for both samples below the Curie temperature (43 degrees C) by using a low temperature Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) technique. Also we determined the effect of the capping with CTAB on the reduction in absorbed power.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Poly(1-vinyl-1,2,4-triazole) (PVTri)-Fe3O4 nanocomposite with conducting character was synthesized by a wet chemical process. PVTri has been freshly synthesized and coated/adsorbed on magnetite nanoparticles that are synthesized via a sonochemical route. The structure, morphology and electrical properties of the products were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Dielectric impedance spectroscopy, respectively. Crystallite size of magnetite was calculated by X-ray line profile fitting as 12 +/- 6 nm. FT-IR and TGA analysis confirm the adsorption of PVTri on magnetite nanoparticles. SEM micrographs revealed that Fe3O4 nanoparticles are slightly aggregated upon PVTri coating. Conductivity and permittivity measurements show the effect of glass transition temperature of polymer par in PVTri-Fe3O4 nanocomposite.
