Magnetic metal nanoparticles have important applications in high density magnetic storage,catalysis and biomedicine,attracting great research interest.In addition,exchange-coupled nanocomposites which combine the high saturation magnetization of a soft phase with the high coercivity of a hard phase,could obtain the magnetic materials with enhanced energy products,providing apossibility for the design and preparation of new generation of permanent magnetic materials.Compared with physical methods,chemical synthesis possesses characteristic flexibilities on materials design,sizes and morphologies,and further affect magnetic properties of the materials,becoming the common methods of preparation for nanoparticles.This review introduces some representative works on the single-phase iron,cobalt,nickel and its alloy metal nanoparticles and rare-earth magnet nanomaterial and their exchange-coupled nanocomposites,as well as explaining the exchange-coupling principles.
