Activated magnetite (Fe3O4-δ) was applied to reducing CO2 gas emissions to avoid greenhouse effects. Wet and dry methods were developed as a CO2 removal process. One of the typical dry methods is CO2 decomposition using activated magnetite (Fe3O4-δ). Generally, Fe3O4-δ is manufactured by reduction of Fe3O4 by H2 gas. This process has an explosion risk. Therefore, a non-explosive process to make Fe3O4-δ was studied using FeC2O4·2H2O and N2. FeSO4·7H2O and (NH4)2C2O4·H2O were used as starting materials. So, α-FeC2O4·2H2O was synthesized by precipitation method. During the calcination process, FeC2O4·2H2O was decomposed to Fe3O4, CO, and CO2. The specific surface area of the activated magnetite varied with the calcination temperature from 15.43 m2/g to 9.32 m2/g. The densities of FeC2O4·2H2O and Fe3O4 were 2.28 g/cm3 and 5.2 g/cm3, respectively. Also, the Fe3O4 was reduced to Fe3O4-δ by CO. From the TGA results in air of the specimen that was calcined at 450˚C for three hours in N2 atmosphere, the δ-value of Fe3O4-δ was estimated. The δ-value of Fe3O4-δ was 0.3170 when the sample was heat treated at 400˚C for 3 hours and 0.6583 when the sample was heat treated at 450˚C for 3 hours. Fe3O4-δ was oxidized to Fe3O4 when Fe3O4-δ was reacted with CO2 because CO2 is decomposed to C and O2.

The effect of the precipitator (NaOH, NH4OH) and the amount of the precipitator (150, 200, 250, 300 ml) on the formation of Fe3(PO4)2, which is the precursor used for cathode material LiFePO4 in Li-ion rechargeable batteries was investigated by the co-precipitation method. A pure precursor of olivine LiFePO4 was successfully prepared with coprecipitation from an aqueous solution containing trivalent iron ions. The acid solution was prepared by mixing 150 ml FeSO4(1M) and 100 ml H3PO4(1M). The concentration of the NaOH and NH4OH solution was 1 M. The reaction temperature (25˚C) and reaction time (30 min) were fixed. Nitrogen gas (500 ml/min) was flowed during the reaction to prevent oxidation of Fe2+. Single phase Fe3(PO4)2 was formed when 150, 200, 250 and 300 ml NaOH solutions were added and 150, 200 ml NH4OH solutions were added. However, Fe3(PO4)2 and NH4FePO4 were formed when 250 and 300 ml NH4OH was added. The morphology of the Fe3(PO4)2 changed according to the pH. Plate-like lenticular shaped Fe3(PO4)2 formed in the acidic solution below pH 5 and plate-like rhombus shaped Fe3(PO4)2 formed around pH 9. For the NH4OH, the pH value after 30 min reaction was higher with the same amount of additions of NaOH and NH4OH. It is believed that the formation mechanism of Fe3(PO4)2 is quite different between NaOH and NH4OH. Further investigation on this mechanism is needed. The prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the pH value was measured by pH-Meter.

The effect of ferrous/ferric molar ratio on the formation of nano-sized magnetite particles was investigated by a co-precipitation method. Ferrous sulfate and ferric sulfate were used as iron sources and sodium hydroxide was used as a precipitant. In this experiment, the variables were the ferrous/ferric molar ratio (1.0, 1.25, 2.5 and 5.0) and the equivalent ratio (0.10, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0), while the reaction temperature (25˚C) and reaction time (30 min.) were fixed. Argon gas was flowed during the reactions to prevent the Fe2+ from oxidizing in the air. Single-phase magnetite was synthesized when the equivalent ratio was above 2.0 with the ferrous/ferric molar ratios. However, goethite and magnetite were synthesized when the equivalent ratio was 1.0. The crystallinity of magnetite increased as the equivalent ratio increased up to 3.0. The crystallite size (5.6 to 11.6 nm), median particle size (15.4 to 19.5 nm), and saturation magnetization (43 to 71 emu.g-1) changed depending on the ferrous/ferric molar ratio. The highest saturation magnetization (71 emu.g-1) was obtained when the equivalent ratio was 3.0 and the ferrous/ferric molar ratio was 2.5.

In this paper, the electrochemical non-enzyme immunosensor has been developed for the determination of salmonella antigen, using inverse voltammetry. For the estimation of salmonella antigen concentration, the nanoparticles synthesized by microemulsion method were conjugated with salmonella antigen. Then, the immunocomplex between antibody immobilized on the transducer surface and antigen containing a magnetic nanoparticles was formed. From the linear relationship between the reduction peak current of Fe(III) and salmonella antigen concentration, it is suggested that the electrochemical non-enzyme biosensor is applicable to detect salmonella antigen in the concentration range of

The surface of magnetite () nanoparticles prepared by coprecipitation method was modified by carboxylic acid group of poly(3-thiophenacetic acid (3TA)) and meso-2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA). Then the lysozyme protein was immobilized on the carboxylic acid group of the modification of the magnetite nanoparticles. The magnetite nanoparticles are spherical and the particle size is approximately 10 nm. We measured quantitative dispersion state by dispersion stability analyzer for each nanoparticles with and without surface modification. The concentration of lysozyme on the modified magnetite nanoparticles was also investigated by a UV-Vis spectrometer and compared to that of magnetite nanoparticles without surface modification. The functionalized magnetite particles had higher enzymatic capacity and dispersion stability than non-functionalized magnetite nanoparticles

Fe-28%Al(Fe3Al)과 Fe-28%Al-4%Cr(Fe3Al-4Cr) 금속간화합물을 대기중 1073, 1273, 1473k의 온도에서 최고 17일까지 장시간 산화시켰다. Fe3Al-4Cr의 산화저항은 근본적으로 Fe3Al과 거의 비슷하거나, 약간 우수하였다. Fe3Al 위에 형성된 산화물은 거의 순수한 α-AL2O3로만 구성되어 있었으며, Fe3Al-4Cr 위에 형성된 산화물은 약간의 Fe와 Cr 이온이 고용된 α-AL2O3로 구성되어 있었다. 외부산화막을 형성하기 위해 모재원소의 외부확산에 의해 산화물-모재 계면에는 Kirkendall 기공이 존재하였다. Fe3Al(-4Cr) 표면에 형성된 산화막은 1273k가지는 비교적 얇고 치밀하였으나, 1473k에서 산화막의 박리와 함께 상대적으로 큰 무게증가가 발생하였다.
