Synthesis and characterisation of flame-sprayed superparamagnetic bare and silica-coated maghemite nanoparticles
Magnetic nanoparticles are a much sought-after entity with direct applications in bioseparation, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), drug delivery and cancer therapy. gamma-Fe2O3 and SiO2/ gamma-Fe2O3 nanoparticles of different sizes (dBET = 5-50 nm) were synthesised [...]
