Maghemite and hematite nanospheres were synthesized by using the Sol-gel technique. The structural properties of these nanosphere powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and pore size distribution. Hematite phase shows crystalline structures. The mean particle size that resulted from BET and XRD analyses were 4.9 nm and 2 nm. It can be seen from transmission electron microscopy that the size of the particles are very small which is in good agreement with the FESEM and the X-ray diffraction. The BET and pore size method were employed for specific surface area determination.

High coercivity thin $Fe_{3}O_{4}$ and ${\gamma}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ films were deposited on Si substrate under well controlled $O_{2}$ partial pressure by dcreactive magnetron sputtering. The coercivity of as-deposited maggnetite films is below 640 Oe. After cxidizing at $360^{\circ}C$ for 10 minutes, the films transform to maghemite ${\gamma}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ completely, and the coercivity increases greatly to 2100~4120 Oe, depending on modification of not with minor addition of Co or/and Mn. The orign of coercivity enhancement is attributed mainly to magnetic anisotropy arisen from interfacial stress. The addition of 5 at% Co and 5 at% Mn greatly enhances coercivity and squareness ratio. These films are potential for ultra-high density recording applications.

In this study, we tried to synthesis iron hydroxide suitable for longitudinal magnetic recording media from waste acid, which is a by-product of an iron works factory. Effects of initial pH of reactants, reaction temperature, reaction time for the synthesis of acicular iron hydroxide were studied in relation to particle properties of iron hydroxide and magnetic properties of maghemite powders. As the pH in reactant solution increased, $\beta$-FeOOH(pH=4.5), mixture of $\beta$-FeOOH and $\alpha$-FeOOH(4.5$\alpha$-FeOOH and Fe3O4(6.4$\alpha$-FeOOH (pH>13) was found to from in order. Especially, $\alpha$-FeOOH formed above pH 13 was single phase with superior acicularity. The temperature range over which the single-phase goethite can be formed increased as the initial pH of reactants increased (pH 13:10~5$0^{\circ}C$, pH 13.2:10~7$0^{\circ}C$, pH 13.5:0~8$0^{\circ}C$). The goethite formed between 40~6$0^{\circ}C$ has superior characteristics because the acicularity increased with increasing temperature but at high temperature (>6$0^{\circ}C$) Fe3O4 (pH=13) was found to start to form. Generally, single phase of goethite was found to form after one hour when an optimized condition. The particle size of goethite did not change as the reaction time increased over one hour. Accordingly, the magnetic properties of ${\gamma}$-Fe2O3 produced from goethite were not altered.

최근 해상유류오염사고시 사용되는 유화제는 해안으로 이동하여 또 다른 수질오염의 원인으로 문제가 되고 있다. 이 연구에서는 자성을 띠고 있는 흡착제를 이용하여 해수 속에 잔류하는 유화제를 제거하는 기술에 대해서 논의하였다. 본 실험에서는 자성을 띠는 흡착제로서 마그네타이트와 마그헤마이트를 이용하였고, 대표적인 유화제 성분으로는 음이온성 계면활성제인 SDDBS (Sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonic acid)와 비이온성 계면활성제인 Triton X-100 (t-octylphenoxypoly-ethoxyethanol)을 사용하였다. 실험은 두 흡착제의 유화제에 대한 흡착 평형시간과 흡착능에 대한 회분식 실험과 모의 실제 상황에서 흡착제가 영구자석이나 전자석에 의해 수거되는 양상을 알아보기 위한 수조실험으로 나누어 이루어졌다. 마그헤마이트는 계면활성제의 종류와 사용된 물의 종류에 상관없이 제거효율이 일정하게 나타나는데 비해 마그네타이트는 음이온성 계면활성제에 대해 선택적으로 고효율을 보이고 있고, 이온이 존재하는 해수보다는 증류수의 경우가 높은 효율을 보이고 있다. 미그네타이트의 흡착메커니즘은 정전기적 인력에 의한 것으로 판단되고, 마그헤마이트의 경우는 정전기적 인력과 함께 흡착능을 향상시키는 구조적 특정과 표면상태의 특성으로 설명되어진다. 수조실험에서는 흡착이 이루어진 후 자석에 의한 회수는 100%에 가까운 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 결과는 두 흡착제와 사석에 의한 유화제 제거방법이 실제 해상에서 적용되었을 때 유화제를 짧은 시간 내에 고효율로 처리할 수 있는 효과적인 방법임을 시사한다.

In this study, maghemite (${\gamma}-Fe_2O_3$) nanoparticles were produced using gelatin protein as an effective mediator. Size, shape, surface morphology and magnetic properties of the prepared ${\gamma}-Fe_2O_3$ nanoparticles were characterized using XRD, FT-IR, TEM, SEM and VSM data. The effects of furnace temperature and time of heating together with the amount of gelatin on the produced gelatin-$Fe_3O_4$ nanocomposite were examined to prove the fundamental effect of gelatin; both as a capping agent in the nanoscale synthesis and as the director of the spinel ${\gamma}-Fe_2O_3$ synthesis among possible $Fe_2O_3$ crystalline structures.

Iron nanoparticles were made by using the modified coprecipitation technique. Usually the characteristics of synthesised particles depend upon the process parameters such as the ratio of the iron ions, the pH of the solution, the molar concentration of base used, type of reactants and temperature. A modified coprecipitation method was adopted in this study. A magnetic stirrer was used for mixing and the morphology and nature of particles were observed after synthesis. Nanoparticles were characterised through XRD. Obtained nanoparticles showed the formation of magnetite and maghemite under citric acid and oxalic acid as stabilisers respectively. The size of nanoparticle was greatly affected by the use of different types of stabilisers. Results show that citric acid greatly reduced the obtained particle size. Particle size as small as 13 nm was obtained in this study. The effects of different kinds of nucleating agents were also observed and two different types of nucleating agents were used i.e. potassium hydroxide (KOH) and copper chloride ($CuCl_2$). Results show that the use of nucleating agent in general pushes the growth phase of nanoparticles towards the end of coprecipitation reaction. The particles obtained after addition of nucleating agent were greater in size than particles obtained by not utilising any nucleating agent. These particles have found widespread use in medical sciences, energy conservation and electronic sensing technology.

Gas sensing element, $\gamma-Fe_2O_3$was synthesized by dehydration, reduction, and oxidation of $$${\gamma}$-FeOOH, which was synthesized with $FeSO_4\;{\cdot}\;7H_2O$ and NaOH. They were produced as a bulk-type, a thick film-type. Then, their responses and mechanisms of response to the gas of liquefied-petroleum were studied. The qualities of gas sensing elements are decided by the structure and the relative surface area. In the process of $\alpha-FeOOH $synthesis, the effects of reaction conditions as the equivalent ratio, on the structure and the relative surface area of gas sensing element were observed. The changes of the structure were measured with XRD, SEM, TG-DTA and BET. The resistance changes of the synthesized gas sensor in the air were measured. The response ratio were also measured for the changes of working temperature and gas concentration. As a result of analysis with XRD, it was confirmed that the the best conditions for the synthesis of $\alpha -FeOOH$ were equivalent ratio 0.65. The thick film-type element of $\gamma-Fe_2O_3$responded more quickly than the bulk-type did. The structure and the relative surface area of the $\alpha-FeOOH $were confirmed as the important factors deciding gas response charcteristics.

The optimum conditions was synthesized for the formation of Magnetite ($Fe_3O_4$) by air bubbling with the suspensions obtained by mixing Ferrous sulfate ($FeSO_4\cdot 7H_2O$) and Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) solution in various values equivalent ratio($R=2NaOH/FeSO_4$) were studied. The changes of the structure were measured with XRD, $EM and BET. Equivalent ratio R: 0.65 was synthesized Goethite ($\alpha$-FeOOH), which becomes Maghemite ($\gamma=Fe_2O_3$) by dehydration, reduction and oxidation process. At the equivalent ratio over 1 (R>1), Magnetite ($Fe_3O_4$) was synthesized directly. The oxygen-deficient Magnetite ($Fe_3O_{4-\delta}$), which is obtained by flowing $H_2$ gas(100 ml/min) through the synthesis Magnetite at 350$\circ$C for 4 hr. By using it, was researched the decomposition reaction of $CO_2$. $CO_2$ was decomposed nearly 100% in 45 minutes by the oxygen-deficient Magnetite.

The composites of alginate, carbon nanotube, and iron(III) oxide were prepared for the removal of heavy metal in aqueous pollutant. Both alginate and carbon nanotube were used as an adsorbent material and iron oxide was introduced for the easy recovery after removal of heavy metal to eliminate the secondary pollution. The morphology of composites was investigated by FE-SEM showing the carbon nanotubes coated with alginate and the iron oxide dispersed in the alginate matrix. The ferromagnetic properties of composites were shown by including iron(III) oxide additive. The copper ion removal was investigated with ICP AES. The copper ion removal efficiency increased greatly over 60% by using alginate-carbon nanotube composites.

Recently the preparation magnetic nanoparticles by a pulsed laser ablation in liquid has gained much attention because it is easy to control experimental parameters. Iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles have been prepared by a pulsed laser ablation of ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ target in ethanol at different magnitude of laser energy of 1, 20, 40 and 80 mJ/pulse. It revealed that particle size increases with increasing laser energy. It could be concluded that 40 mJ/pulse is an optimum laser energy for the preparation of iron oxide nanoparticles with uniform size distribution. The nanoparticles are homogeneously dispersed in ethanol and their stability maintained for several months.
