Iron Oxide Nanoparticles, Characteristics and Applications
Some of the important iron oxides are goethite, akaganeite, lepidocrocite, magnetite, and hematite. 1, 2, 3. Iron oxide (IO) nanoparticles consist of maghemite (γ-Fe 2 O 3) and/or magnetite (Fe 3 O 4) particles with diameters ranging from 1 and 100 nanometer and find applications in magnetic data storage, biosensing, drug-delivery etc. 4,5,6,7 ...
