Superparamagnetic maghemite nanoparticles were successfully produced using Massart's procedure. Nanocomposites consisting of synthesized maghemite nanoparticles and silica were produced by dispersing the as-synthesized maghemite nanoparticles into the silica particulate form. The system was then heated at 140 ℃for 3 d. A variety of mass ratios of Fe2O3/SiO2 was investigated. Moreover, no surfactant or other unnecessary precursor was involved. The nanocomposites were characterized using XRD, BET and AGM. The XRD diffraction patterns show the reflection corresponding to maghemite nanoparticles and a visible wide band at 20 from 20° to 35° which are the characteristics of the amorphous phase of the silica gel. The patterns also exhibit the presence of only maghemite and SiO2 amorphous phase, which indicates that there is no chemical reaction between the silica particulate gel and maghemite nanoparticles to form other compounds. The calculated crystallite size for encapsulated maghemite nanoparticles is smaller than the as-synthesized maghemite nanoparticles indicating the dissolution of the nanoparticles. Very high surface area is attained for the produced nanocomposites (360-390 m^2/g). This enhances the sensitivity and the reactivity of the nanocomposites. The shapes of the magnetization curves for nanocomposites are very similar to the as-synthesized maghemite nanoparticles. Superparamagnetic behaviour is exhibited by all samples, indicating that the size of the maghemite nanoparticles is always within the nanometre range. The increase in iron content gives rise to a small particle growth.展开更多

Vibrating sample magnetometer and X-ray diffraction analyser were applied to study the magnetic properties and microstructures of the films. The results show that without Ag underlayer [SiO2/FePt]5 films deposited onto the glass are FCC disordered; with the addition of Ag underlayer [SiO]FePt]5/Ag films are changed into L10 and (111) mixed texture. The variation of the SiO2 nonmagnetic layer thickness in [SiO2/FePt]5/Ag films indicates that SiO2-doping plays an important role in improving the order parameter and the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy, and reducing the grain size and intergrain interactions. By controlling SiO2 thickness the highly perpendicular magnetic anisotropy can be obtained in the [SiO2 (0.6 nm)/FePt (3 nm)]5/Ag (50 nm) films and highly (001)-oriented films can be obtained in the [SiO2 (2 nm)/FePt (3 nm)]5/Ag (50 nm) films.展开更多

The thermodynamics calculation shows that all the standard Gibbs free energy changes of the reactions to form Na2CrO4, Na2O-Fe2O3, Na2O·Al2O3 and Na2O3 SiO2 via chromite ore and Na2CO3 are negative, and the standard Gibbs free energy changes of the reactions between MgO, Fe2O3 and SiO2 released from chromite spinel to form MgO-Fe2O3 and MgO·SiO2 are also negative at the oxidative roasting temperatures (1 173 1 473 K). The phrase analysis of the sinter in lime-free roasting process shows that Na2O·Fe2O3, Na2O·Al2O3 and Na2O·SiO2 can be formed in the first 20 min, but they decrease in contents and finally disappear with the increase of roasting time. The final phase compositions of the sinter are Na2CrO4, MgO·Fe2O3, MgO·SiO2 and MgO. The results indicate that Na2CrO4 can be formed easily via the reaction ofNa2CO3 with chromite ore. Na2O·Fe2O3, Na2O-Al2O3 and Na2O·SiO2 can be formed as intermediate compounds in the roasting process and they can further react with chromite ore to form Na2CrO4. MgO released from chromite ore may react with iron oxides and silicon oxide to form stable compounds of MgO·Fe2O3 and MgO·SiO2, respectively.展开更多
