Influence of silane coating and graphene oxide integration on the magnetothermal behaviors of la1-xsrxmno3 nanoparticles

Abstract

In this study, La1-xSrxMnO3 (x = 0.27, 0.3, 0.33) magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) were synthesized and then these nanoparticles synthesized in the core-shell structure were coated with silane for potential magnetic hyperthermia applications. In order to provide support material for the coated magnetic nanoparticles, silane-coated hybrid magnetic nanoparticles were obtained by producing graphene oxide (GO) nanoflakes. The structural and magnetic properties and magnetothermal properties of these structures were investigated. It was observed that the structure of the silane-coated magnetic nanoparticles remained intact and did not show any degradation compared to the uncoated materials. In addition, the highest saturation magnetization (MS) value was observed in the sample doped with x = 0.30. This value indicated that the heating power would be higher than the other doped samples in the specific absorption ratio (SAR) measurements. In this context, the heating amount in the silane-coated samples showed a slight decrease compared to the uncoated samples. Despite the decrease in the SAR values of the integrated samples by incorporating GO into the coated MNPs, it is anticipated that effective results will be obtained for practical applications with the advantage of increasing the thermal conductivity of GO.
