In this work we have studied the influence of chelating agents on the growth of Ñ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles obtained by coprecipitation method. The nanoparticles were characterized by structural and magnetization techniques. The nanoparticles were obtained from precursors prepared with different concentrations of chelating agents: sucrose and glycerin. To obtain nanoparticles, the precursors were submitted at temperatures between 200 and 400 -XC. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), small angles X-ray scattering (SAXS) and magnetization measurements. The XRD results allied to the Rietveld refinement confirm the formation of Ñ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles with average sizes from 4 to 70 nm. The TEM and XRD results indicate a preferential growth pronounced for the crystallographic plane (110) for the samples prepared with addition of 10 mmol/l of sucrose and glycerin. Furthermore, a more careful analysis performed on the data of XRD, SEM, TEM, SAXS and magnetization curves on the mode Zero-Field-Cooling and Field-Cooling (ZFC-FC) clearly show the dependence of the size, size distribution and shape nanoparticles as a function of the concentration of chelating agent. Preliminary results of TEM show that it was possible to grow iron oxide nanoparticles coated with carbon structures similar to the structures of onion-type fullerenes to depend on the synthesis conditions (type and concentration of chelating agent, and synthesis temperature).
