SYNTHESIS and MAGNETIC BEHAVIOR of CuO/CuFe2O4 and Fe2O3/ZnFe2O4 NANOCOMPOSITES

Key Points

CuO/CuFe2O4 and Fe2O3/ZnFe2O4 nanocomposites were synthesized and characterized using advanced techniques.
The magnetic behavior was evaluated using VSM, showing Fe2O3/ZnFe2O4 had superior magnetism.
XRD, FTIR, and XPS confirmed the presence of spinel ferrites and free oxides in the composites.
Understanding these magnetic properties can advance nanocomposite applications in technology.

Abstract

CuO/CuFe2O4 and Fe2O3/ZnFe2O4 were both identified in two nanocomposites that have formed by combusting with subsequent heating to 700 °C. Utilizing XRD, FTIR, and XPS techniques, the produced composites were characterized. VSM technique, it was possible to evaluate the magnetic properties of the as-synthesized composites. The results revealed formation nanocomposites containing mainly spinel ferrites (CuFe2O4 and ZnFe2O4 as major phases) with some free oxides (CuO and Fe2O3 as minor phases). Fe2O3/ZnFe2O4 exhibited higher magnetism compared to CuO/CuFe2O4, based upon the particle size and cation distribution
