A method for the preparation of bimetallic Pd/Co nanoparticles with a core–shell structure is presented. The process involves synthesis of a pure Pd seed colloid using thermal decomposition of palladium acetylacetonate, Pd(acac)2. Reduction of cobalt acetate using a polyalcohol in the presence of the Pd seeds allows the formation of Pd-core/Co-shell nanocrystals. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDX), and superconducting quantum interference (SQUID) magnetometry were used to characterize the bimetallic system.

In this work, CdSe QDs were synthesized using a microwave assisted method and chemical reaction between NaHSe, CdSO4 at the presence of TGA as capping molecule. Thereafter without CdSe extraction, CdS shell was grown subsequently around CdSe cores by a reaction based on the heat sensitivity of Na2S2O3 dissociation. Synthesized QDs were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV–Vis and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. All of these analyzes confirmed formation of CdSe QDs and successfully growth of CdS shell on surface of CdSe to forming CdSe/CdS core-shell structure.

Stability of Ag2S@ZnS QDs in water is a crucial concern for their application in biology. In this work, both physical sustainability and emission stability of Ag2S QDs were enhanced using parameter optimization of a pulsed microwave irradiation (MI) method up to 105 days after their preparation. UV–Vis and photoluminescence spectroscopies depicted an absorption and emission about 817 nm and 878 nm, respectively. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis showed a growth of Ag2S acanthite phase. Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) images revealed a clear formation of Ag2S@ZnS core–shell structure.

Core Shell Nanoparticles

A biomimetic and facile approach for integrating Fe 3 O 4 and Au with polydopamine (PDA) was proposed to construct gold-coated Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles ( Fe 3 O 4@ Au – PDA ) with a core–shell structure by coupling in situ reduction with a seed-mediated method in aqueous solution at room temperature. The morphology, structure and composition of the core–shell structured Fe 3 O 4@ Au – PDA nanoparticles were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectrometry (XPS). The formation process of Au shell was assessed using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer. More importantly, according to investigating changes in PDA molecules by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and in preparation process of the zeta-potential data of nanoparticles, the mechanism of core–shell structure formation was proposed. Firstly, PDA-coated Fe 3 O 4 are obtained using dopamine (DA) self-polymerization to form thin and surface-adherent PDA films onto the surface of a Fe 3 O 4 "core". Then, Au seeds are attached on the surface of PDA-coated Fe 3 O 4 via electrostatic interaction in order to serve as nucleation centers catalyzing the reduction of Au 3+ to Au 0 by the catechol groups in PDA. Accompanied by the deposition of Au , PDA films transfer from the surface of Fe 3 O 4 to that of Au as stabilizing agent. In order to confirm the reasonableness of this mechanism, two verification experiments were conducted. The presence of PDA on the surface of Fe 3 O 4@ Au – PDA nanoparticles was confirmed by the finding that glycine or ethylenediamine could be grafted onto Fe 3 O 4@ Au – PDA nanoparticles through Schiff base reaction. In addition, Fe 3 O 4@ Au – DA nanoparticles, in which DA was substituted for PDA, were prepared using the same method as that for Fe 3 O 4@ Au – PDA nanoparticles and characterized by UV-Vis, TEM and FTIR. The results validated that DA possesses multiple functions of attaching Au seeds as well as acting as both reductant and stabilizing agent, the same functions as those of PDA.

Self-stratifying polyacrylate latex containing silicon was synthesized via semi-continuous emulsion polymerization, using organic silicon and acrylate as raw materials. Transmission electron microscope(TEM) characterization indicated that the particles were form uniform analogous core-shell structure and dynamic light scattering(DLS) analysis possessed narrow size distributions. The results of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) proved the propensity of silicon enrichment at film-air interface, which revealed self-stratifying phenomenon. The thermal stability of the latex films determined by thermogravimetric analysis(TGA) was increased 24 °C as the join of organic silicon.

Fe3O4@chitosan (CS)@Gefitinib (GFTN) core-shell structure composite magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared by chemical coprecipitation method in this study. In addition, protamine was doped in Fe3O4 cores to prepare Fe3O4@protamine@CS@GFTN core-shell structure composite NPs, in order to increase the loading of GFTN in composite NPs. They were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and spectrophotometer. The results show that the average size of Fe3O4@CS@GFTN and Fe3O4@protamine@CS@GFTN composite NPs is approximately 19 and 21[Formula: see text]nm, respectively. The saturation magnetizations of composite magnetic NPs and corresponding magnetic fluids are 57.20, 20.79, 59.58 and 19.75[Formula: see text]emu/g, respectively. The loading of GFTN in composite NPs was measured by a spectrophotometer to be about 13.5% and 27.6%, respectively. The addition of protamine increased the loading of GFTN two times, indicating that it will play an important role in the management of lung diseases.

Silica/polyurea composite was prepared after surface modification of silica nanoparticles. Silica/polyurea composite was characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. The results indicate that the helical polyurea has been successfully grafted onto the surfaces of the modified silica. Silica/polyurea composite exhibits clearly core–shell structure. The ultraviolet absorption and crystallizability of silica/polyurea are changed due to the shell of helical polyurea, which possesses regular singlehanded conformation and interchain hydrogen bonds. The dielectric constant of silica/polyurea was also investigated. The result indicates that the interfacial interactions between organic shell and inorganic core increase the dielectric constant value being increased to 6.42 for silica/polyurea. The interchain hydrogen bonds of helical polyurea could also be the reason for the increasing of dielectric constant.

AbstractThis paper presents the results of our analysis of ferrogels prepared using uncoated and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)-coated magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles. The N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) based hydrogel is used with 15-25 nm Fe3O4 nanoparticles different concentrations in the range 1.25 -14%. These samples were analyzed using ultra small angle x-ray scattering (USAXS), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), and Direct-Current Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices (DC-SQUID) magnetometry. Samples prepared with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) coated nanoparticles showed a better single particle distribution compared to uncoated samples. USAXS data indicated that the gels prepared using uncoated nanoparticles have a large two particle agglomerations. In both cases, the volume fraction of the particles in the gel is linearly proportional to the initial particle concentrations. The DC-SQUID magnetometry analysis indicated that the magnetic moment of the gel samples prepared with uncoated particles is ∼ 2emu/g compared to ∼1.5emu/g of those having coated particles.

Core Shell Nanoparticles

Core/shell type nanoparticles with an average diameter of 20nm were synthesized by chemical precipitation method. Firstly, Monodisperse Fe3O4 nanoparticles were synthesized by solvethermal method. FeSO4ž7H2O and NaBH4 were respectively dissolved in distilled water, then moderated Fe3O4 particles and surfactant(PVP) were ultrasonic dispersed into the FeSO4ž7H2O solution. The resulting solution was stirred 2 h at room temperature. Fe could be deposited on the surface of monodispersed Fe3O4 nanoparticles to form core-shell particles. The particles were characterized by using various experimental techniques, such as transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), AGM and DTA. The results suggest that the saturation magnetization of the nanocomposites is 100 emu/g. The composition of the samples show monodisperse and the sides of the core/shell nanoparticles are 20-30nm. It is noted that the formation of Fe3O4/Fe nanocomposites magnetite nanoparticles possess superparamagnetic property.

ABSTRACTThe synthesis of bimetallic magnetic nanoparticles is very challenging because of the agglomeration and non-uniform size. In this paper, we present the synthesis of monodispersed 3-5 nm sized thiolated bimetallic alloyed Au/Co nanoparticles with decahedral and icosahedral shape, their characterization using Cs-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) and magnetic measurements using superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometer. The Z-contrast imaging and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) mapping showed an inhomogeneous alloying with minor segregation between Au and Co at nanoscale and the SQUID measurement exhibited the ferromagnetic behavior.
