Abstract

Chemical synthesis Magnetic materials Magnetic properties Magnetometry
Thermal decomposition of the trinuclear heterometallic oxoacetates [Fe 2M(μ 3-O)(CH 3COO) 6(H 2O) 3] has been used as a single-precursor method for synthesis of the spinel-structured ternary oxides MFe 2O 4 (M = Mn II, Co II, and Ni II). This facile process occurring at 320 °C results in the formation of nanocrystalline (7–20 nm) highly pure stoichiometric ferrites in quantitative yield. The magnetic properties of these nanoparticulate ferrites were studied in the 10–300 K temperature range, revealing superparamagnetic behavior for the Ni and Mn particles and ferrimagnetic behavior for the Co ones at room temperature. Their blocking temperatures follow the order: CoFe 2O 4 > MnFe 2O 4 > NiFe 2O 4.
