Abstract

Single-domain manganese ferrite nanoparticles were synthesized through one-step chemical co-precipitation technique using diethanolamine which acted simultaneously as precipitating and capping agent. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by XRD, FTIR, TGA, EDX, FESEM and VSM. XRD pattern showed the presence of peaks corresponding to the single-phase inverse spinel structure with an average crystallite size of 59.6 nm. The average particle size determined by FESEM was 46.8 nm. In addition, the magnetic properties of the nanoparticles analyzed by VSM exhibited nearly superparamagnetic property with a high saturation magnetization of 77.31 emu/g with little coercivity (10.53 emu/g) and remanence (9.32 emu/g) at 300 K temperature. TGA and FTIR results confirmed the binding of diethanolamine onto the surface of manganese ferrite nanoparticles. The synthesized nanoparticles exhibited single crystalline phase with improved magnetic properties.
