Popis: | The constrained motion of spindle-shaped hematite nanoparticles of about 400 nm in PAAm-hydrogels with different degrees of cross-link density is measured utilizing the line broadening observable in Mossbauer spectra at 265–293 K. A slight decrease of nanoparticle mobility is observed upon increasing cross-link density. Mossbauer spectra of the same nanoparticles in 60 wt % sucrose solution, used as reference material, display line broadening of the same magnitude as the hydrogel samples, indicating a similar degree of motion at the atomic scale and the time scale of the Mossbauer experiment. AC (alternating current) susceptibility data indicate that the magnetic relaxation of the nanoparticles in sucrose solution mainly occurs by Brownian motion, while the absence of magnetic loss within the investigated frequency range observed in measurements on hydrogel samples reveals very limited particle mobility. This apparent contradiction between results on particle dynamics in hydrogels by Mossbauer spectroscop... |
