In this work was studied the rotational Brownian motion of magnetic spherical and tri-axial ellipsoidal particles suspended in a Newtonian fluid, in the dilute suspension limit, under applied shear and magnetic fields by ...

Magnetite nanoparticles are attractive for biomedical applications such as magnetic fluid hyperthermia (MFH), a novel cancer treatment, due to their ability to induce heating through energy dissipation in an oscillating ...

With the objective of developing a magnetic nanoparticle based sensor, we have synthesized cobalt-substituted ferrite particles using reverse micelles. Reverse micelles have been used to control the nanoparticle size. ...

We studied the flow of ferrofluid induced by rotating magnetic fileds. This flow was observed for first time in fi96F by Moskowitz and Rosensweig [App1. Ph4s. Gett., 10, pag. 3Ofi (fi96F)] and since then researchers has ...

A comprehensive study of physical and magnetic properties of cobalt substituted ferrite and magnetite nanoparticles synthesized by thermal-decomposition was carried out. Initially, a systematic study of the effect of ...

The work presented in this dissertation focuses primarily on the rheological characterization of magneto-responsive fluids, consisting of suspensions of magnetic nanoparticles in non-magnetic liquid media. The rheology of ...

Oleic acid coated cobalt ferrite nanoparticles (CoFe2O4-OA), which relax through the Brownian mechanism, were dispersed in Polystyrene (PS) and Polybutadiene (PBD) of various molecular weights (MW). These suspensions were ...

The work presented as part of this thesis describes a process to obtain two types of conventionally used magnetic nanoparticles, magnetite and cobalt ferrite, with a narrow size distribution that can be suspended in aqueous ...

Reverse micelles prepared in the system water, sodium bis-(2-ethylhexyl) sulfoccinate (AOT), and isooctane were investigated as a templating system for the production of gold nanoparticles from the reduction of Au (III) ...

In this contribution, Brownian dynamics simulations of spherical, thermally blocked, magnetic nanoparticles under applied shear and magnetic fields were studied. Equilibrium and dynamical properties as well as rheological ...
