Abstract

The method of obtaining nanoclusters α-Fe2O3 in the pores of monodisperse spherical particles of mesoporous silica (mSiO2) by a single impregnation of the pores with a melt of crystalline hydrate of ferric nitrate and its subsequent thermal destruction has been proposed. Fe3O4 nanoclusters are synthesized from α-Fe2O3 in the pores by reducing in thermodynamically equilibrium conditions. Then particles containing Fe3O4 were annealed in oxygen for the conversion of Fe3O4 back to α-Fe2O3. In the result, the particles with the structure of the core-shell mSiO2/Fe3O4@mSiO2/α-Fe2O3 are obtained. The composition and structure of synthesized materials as well as the field dependence of the magnetic moment on the magnetic field strength have been investigated.
