Clustering of magnetic nanoparticles with and without magnetic field

Clustering of magnetic nanoparticles with and without magnetic field / Nur Syazwani Rohisham
Nanopartikel besi oksida yang terdedah dan nanopartikel besi oksida yang telah difungsikan dengan sampel Poly (diallyldimethylammoniumchloride) (PDDA) disediakan dalam tiga kepekatan yang berbeza iaitu 50 ppm, 100 ppm dan 200 ppm. Kehadiran PDDA sebagai lapisan permukaan menyediakan penstabilan elektrosterik bagi zarah-zarah yang akan menyebabkan penolakan sterik di antara zarah. Ini menurunkan kadar pengagregatan nanopartikel oksida besi magnetik dan mengurangkan aktiviti pengumpulan zarah. Tujuan utama kajian ini adalah untuk mengkaji kluster magnetik nanopartikel besi oksida dengan dan tanpa medan magnet. Medan magnet luar diperkenalkan dengan menggunakan magnet kekal. Kekuatan medan magnet telah ditetapkan sepanjang eksperimen ini dijalankan. Dalam kajian ini, nanopartikel besi oksida yang terdedah dan nanopartikel besi oksida yang telah difungsikan dalam tiga kepekatan yang berbeza didedahkan kepada medan magnet. Kejadian pengumpulan zarah-zarah itu diperhatikan menggunakan mikroskop optik. Imej mikroskopik dari pengumpalan zarah telah ditangkap. Imej-imej dianalisis menggunakan perisian ImageJ untuk menentukan purata keluasan nanopartikel besi oksida dan bilangan zarah dari semasa ke semasa. Pengumpulan nanopartikel besi oksida berlaku dengan pantas dengan medan magnet berbanding tanpa medan magnet. Apabila medan magnet digunakan, zarah-zarah tersebut sejajar dengan medan magnet dan bergerak di sepanjang kecerunan medan magnet. Apabila zarah bergerak, zarah-zarah tersebut berhubung antara satu sama lain dan membentuk agregat linear ke arah kecerunan medan magnet. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ Bare iron oxide nanoparticles and surface functionalized iron oxide nanoparticles with Poly(diallyldimethylammoniumchloride) (PDDA) sample was prepared at three different concentrations of 50 ppm, 100 ppm and 200 ppm. The presence of PDDA as surface coating provides electrosteric stabilization for the particles which causes steric repulsion among the particles. This lowers the rate of aggregation of magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles and less particles clustering event is observed. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the clustering of magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles with and without magnetic field. An external magnetic field is introduced by using a permanent magnet. Throughout the experiment, the magnetic field introduced is kept constant. In this study, bare and surface functionalized magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles of three different concentrations are exposed to the magnetic field. The clustering event of those particles was observed using an optical microscope. Microscopic image of the clustering of particles was captured. The images were analysed using ImageJ software to determine the average iron oxide nanoparticles area and the number of particles from time to time. The clustering of iron oxide nanoparticles occurs rapidly in the presence of magnetic field compared to without magnetic field. As magnetic field is applied, the particles aligned towards the magnetic field and moved along the magnetic field gradient. As the particles moving, they chain with other particles forming linear aggregates in the direction of magnetic field gradient.
