采用化学共沉淀法制备了约25±5nm磁性四氧化三铁(Fe3O4)纳米粒子,并采用3-氨丙基三乙氧基硅烷(APTES)将Fe3O4纳米粒子表面修饰上氨基(-NH2)官能团,获得了表面氨基化的磁性Fe3O4纳米粒子.利用X-射线粉末衍射仪(XRD),透射电子显微镜(TEM),带有能谱仪(EDS)的扫描电子显微镜(SEM),光电子能谱仪(XPS),以及磁学测量系统(MPMS)对粒子的结构和性能进行了表征和分析.结果表明:表面氨基化后的磁性粒子粒径略有增加,室温下磁化强度由原来的64emu/g变为62.5emu/g,较好的保留了原始磁性特征.本研究结果对揭示纳米材料结构与性能关系、以及表面功能化磁性纳米材料制备与应用具有重要意义.
Magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles of 25 ± 5 nm are prepared by modified chemical co-precipitation, and corresponding amino- coated magnetite nanoparticles are also obtained via surface 3 -aminopropyltriethyloxy silane (APTES) modification. The particles properties and structure are characterized and analyzed by X-Ray powder diffraction ( XRD), scanning electron microscopy ( SEM ) with the energy dispersive spectroscopy ( EDS), the Zetasizer Nanoinstrument, X - Ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and magnetic property measurement system (MPMS) with superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometry. The result reveals that the magnetic particles have a slight dimensional increase in average diameter ,and that they while retain almost original saturation magnetization from 64 emu g - 1 to 62.5 emu g - 1 after amino coating. The findings are instructive to elucidate in depth some relationship between nanoparticle structure and property as well as in surface functionalization for nanomaterials fabrication and application.
