Crystal Structure and Magnetic Properties of Fe3O4 Nanoparticles Using Iron Sand as a Raw Material for Mercury Removal
Abstract
Fe3O4 nanoparticles based iron sand from Maluku Utara have been successfully synthesized by co-precipitation methods with varying of the synthesis temperature by 50oC, 60oC and 70oC. The crystal structures and magnetic properties were characterized using X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM). The XRD showed that the Fe3O4 samples have a single phase invers spinel cubic structure. The Crystalization of the temperature 70oC is better than 50oC and 60oC, with the intensity peak index of 311 of 42.688 a.u, whereas at the temperature of 60oC and 50 oC are 25.731 a.u and 22.719 a.u, respectively. There’s no increase in crystallite size with increasing synthesis temperature, with each sizes 23.047 nm, 24.043 nm and 16.041 nm respectively. The VSM showed that the Fe3O4 samplesare soft-ferrimagnetic. The Mr and Mmax are higher at 70oC than 60 oC and 50oC by 3,785 emu/gr 20,288 emu/gr (70oC), 2,432 emu/gr 14,713 emu/gr (60oC), 1.473 emu/gr 12.519 emu/gr (50oC). The coercivity Hc at 70oC and 60oC relatively identical at 0.011 T, whereas at 50oC Hc is 0.012 T. The nanoparticles that are synthesized at 700C are selected for mercury removal due to their stable crystallinity and good magnetic properties. The nanoparticles were able to remove mercury with an adsorption capacity 0,45 mg/g and easy to separate it from the solution.
Keywords: magnetic properties, crystal structure, iron sand, mercury removal.
