RESUMO

The properties of these magnetic materials are strongly influenced by the diameter, shape and size distribution of the nanoparticles. Therefore, the search for new magnetic materials and for alternative methods that allow the synthesis of these magnetic nanoparticles with controlled size and shape using modulate fluids and less toxic reactants is still a challenge. These kinds of materials find special applications in environmental pollution control, biomedicine and catalysis. Here we reported a disclosure of new class of magnetic material based on a stables dispersions of surface modified -Fe2O3 or CoFe2O4 nanoparticles in the BMI.BF4 ionic liquid. The magnetic NPs were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy and magnetic measurements. The stability of the nanoparticles in BMI.BF4 was explained by the formation of a semi-organized protective layer composed of supramolecular aggregates in the form of [(BMI)2(BF4)3]-. We also report an easy synthesis of magnetic nanoparticles by thermal decomposition of Fe(acac)3 as a precursor, BMI.NTf2 as solvent and oleylamine. These process can be extended to the synthesis of MFe2O4 nanoparticles ( with M= Co, Ni, Mn) by simple adding a different metal acetylacetonate precursor to the mixture. The reaction temperature is lower than those used in the decomposition processes reported above. The size and shape of these nanoparticles can be modulated by the reaction temperature or time.
