Uniform-sized iron oxide nanoparticles obtained from the solution phase thermal decomposition of the iron-oleate complex were encapsulated inside the silica shell by the reverse microemulsion technique, and then thermal treatment under NH3 to transfer the iron oxide to iron nitride. The transmission electron microscopy images distinctly demonstrated that the as-prepared iron nitride at silica core/shell nanostructures were highly uniform in particle-size distribution. By using iron oxide nanoparticles of 6.1, 10.3, 16.2, and 21.8 nm as starting materials, iron nitride nanoparticles with average diameters of 5.6, 9.3, 11.6, and 16.7 nm were produced, respectively. The acid-resistant properties of the iron nitride at silica core/shell nanostructures were found to be much higher than the starting iron oxide at silica. A superconducting quantum interference device was used for the magnetic characterization of the nanostructure. Besides, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies using iron nitride at silica nanocomposites as contrast agents demonstrated T2 enhanced effects that were dependent on the concentration. These core/shell nanostructures have enormous potential in magnetic nanodevice and biomedical applications. The current process is expected to be easy for large-scale and transfer other metal oxide nanoparticles.

The interconnection of nanotechnology and medicine could lead to improved materials, offering a better quality of life and new opportunities for biomedical applications, moving from research to clinical applications. Magnetite nanoparticles are interesting magnetic nanomaterials because of the property-depending methods chosen for their synthesis. Magnetite nanoparticles can be coated with various materials, resulting in “core/shell” magnetic structures with tunable properties. To synthesize promising materials with promising implications for biomedical applications, the researchers functionalized magnetite nanoparticles with silica and, thanks to the presence of silanol groups, the functionality, biocompatibility, and hydrophilicity were improved. This review highlights the most important synthesis methods for silica-coated with magnetite nanoparticles. From the presented methods, the most used was the Stöber method; there are also other syntheses presented in the review, such as co-precipitation, sol-gel, thermal decomposition, and the hydrothermal method. The second part of the review presents the main applications of magnetite-silica core/shell nanostructures. Magnetite-silica core/shell nanostructures have promising biomedical applications in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as a contrast agent, hyperthermia, drug delivery systems, and selective cancer therapy but also in developing magnetic micro devices.
