Popis: | The synthesis of iron oxide nanoparticles with control over size and shape has long been an area of research, with iron oleate being arguably the most successful precursor. Issues with reproducibility and versatility in iron oleate-based syntheses remain, however, in large part due to the mutable nature of its structure and stoichiometry. In this work, we characterize two new forms of iron oleate precursor that can be isolated in large quantities, show long-term stability, and have well-defined stoichiometry, leading to reproducible and predictable reactivity. Synthesis with these precursors is shown to produce iron oxide nanoparticles in a tunable size range of 4-16 nm with low size dispersity and properties consistent with magnetite in the superparamagnetic size regime. |
