Abstrakt: The structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of iron oxide nanoparticles encapsulated in hybrid biodegradable therapeutic systems based on poly-3-hydroxybutyrate and chitosan are comprehensively studied using Mössbauer spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, small-angle X-ray scattering, and macroscopic magnetization measurements. It is shown that iron oxide in concentrations of 4 and 8 wt % in the polymer matrix of magnetically isotropic and magnetoanisotropic systems exists in the form of nanosized (d ≈ 7-8 nm) superparamagnetic clusters. Iron oxide clusters have the structure of a nonstoichiometric inverse spinel, intermediate between polymorphous modifications of Fe3O4 and γ-Fe2O3. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
