- Abstract
A non-toxic chemical synthesis method for preparing iron oxide nanoparticles has been developed by adopting olive oil as capping and stabilizing agent. Olive oil is a fatty acid which is used for controlling the tendency of precipitation and agglomeration of the hydroxide precursors on the morphology of the iron oxide nanoparticles. The purpose of natural olive oil is to enhance the biocompatibility. The characterization of iron oxide nanoparticles was performed by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) analysis, Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Particle size analyzer (PSA), Vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and Ultraviolet -Visible Spectroscopy (UV-Vis) studies.
