Thermophysical and structural properties of manganese ferrite nanoparticles
Abstract
This paper discusses the results of the research carried out to study the structure, optical properties and thermophysical properties of a sample (nanopowder with a true density of 4.96 g/cm3, a particle size of 60 nm and a purity of 98.5%, SkySpring Nanomaterials, USA) with high purity. Based on the results of X-ray diffraction, the crystalline phase of MnFe2O4 ferrite nanoparticles was completely obtained and the values of the lattice parameters were determined. The results of the MID-IR analysis showed that the absorption coefficient reaches its maximum value at 748 cm wave number. The optical properties of the as-prepared nanostructures were also investigated by VERTEX 70 V diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS). As can be seen from the results of the DSC analysis, the effects occurring in the temperature range up to C clearly reflect the nature of the phase transitions and the amount of energy generated in the ferrite samples.
