The YbCoC2 compound, which crystallizes in a base-centered orthorhombic unit cell in the Amm2 space group CeNiC2 structure, is unique among Yb-based compounds due to the highest magnetic ordering temperature of TN=27 K. Magnetization measurements have made it possible to plot the H-T magnetic phase diagram and determine the magnetocaloric effect of this recently discovered high-temperature heavy-fermion compound, YbCoC2. YbCoC2 undergoes spin transformation to the spin-polarized state through a metamagnetic transition in an external magnetic field. The transition is found to be of the first order. The dependencies of magnetic entropy change ΔSm(T)—have segments with positive and negative magnetocaloric effects for ΔH≤6 T. For ΔH=9 T, the magnetocaloric effect becomes positive, with a maximum ΔSm(T) value of 4.1 J (kg K)−1 at TN and a refrigerant capacity value of 56.6 J kg−1.

The creation of new compounds featuring high adsorption and catalytic performance with magnetic properties of the material is one of the important fields of magnetochemistry. The typical synthetic schemes of magnetic carbonaceous adsorbents are rather complicated due to the use of inert atmosphere and difficult wet methods of magnetite precipitation. The arising experimental issues prevent industrial production of magnetically activated carbons. In order to overcome these obstacles, we suggested a novel approach to porous carbons: magnetite composite synthesis based on iron (II) salt precipitation on porous carbon and subsequent thermolysis. We facilitated the process at the stage of the material washing. The synthetic route used is simple and can be applied industrially. The present paper is focused on the adsorption performance of a product prepared from commercial activated carbons BAU-A and AG-3. The porous structure was studied with low-temperature nitrogen adsorption that revealed surface area decreased by 26% in the case of BAU-A and 40% in the case of AG-3 with an increase in mesopore volume. Phenol and nitrobenzene adsorption from water solution was tested with magnetic carbon prepared from BAU-A. The adsorption isotherms obtained are described well using the Langmuir model. The limiting adsorption value in the case of magnetic porous carbon is lower than in the case of pristine carbon. The relative decrease in limiting adsorption value is close to the relative decrease in the specific surface area. The adsorption constant remains the same, showing that adsorption centers of phenol and nitrobenzene are the same for porous magnetic carbon and its activated carbon precursor. Thus, we showed in the present study that the magnetically activated carbons we developed almost retain the adsorption performance of their activated carbon precursors.

Microalgae represent a promising feedstock for sustainable biomass and energy. The low cell concentration after cultivation, however, limits the current application fields. Magnetic microalgae harvesting is a recent approach to overcome the economic limitations of exploiting this natural resource. Accordingly, different particle types have been applied, mainly synthetically produced magnetic nanoparticles, though none on an industrial scale. Particle sizes between a few micrometers and a few nanometers have not been tested. We expected 200–500 nm to be advantageous for harvesting and as a compromise between the highly available surface and good separation properties. However, this intermediate magnetite particle size between the micro- and nano-scale cannot be reached via chemical synthesis. Therefore, we ground natural magnetite ore in a planetary ball mill and an agitator bead mill producing particles in the targeted size range. Applying ore particles ground from ~6 µm to 250 nm yields harvesting efficiencies comparable to synthetically produced nanoparticles (Ø ~ 10 nm), with only half the BET surface. Complete harvesting of saline microalgae Microchloropsis salina is possible with ground particles at alkaline pH. We demonstrate the feasibility of a harvesting process with natural, low-cost, easily separable, and readily available magnetite ore particles as a promising step towards exploiting valuable microalgal products in life sciences.

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is a branch of spectroscopy commonly used for identifying the chemical structure of various materials. One of the areas in which NMR provides accurate data is the determination of nuclear magnetic moments. This work reviews NMR experiments with the nuclei of light elements in simple molecules. Since nuclear shielding constants from up-to-date quantum calculations are now available, very accurate dipole moments of many nuclei can be determined. Recent experimental measurements of 1H, 2H, 3H, 3He, 6Li, 7Li, 9Be, 10B, and 11B nuclear magnetic moments and the appropriate theoretical predictions are presented and commented upon. Several achievements in this field using different methodologies, such as NMR spectroscopy, molecular beam experiments, and the Penning trap method are reported.

MnZn ferrite precursor powders were prepared by the nano in situ composite method. Three surfactants, which include polyethylene glycol 400 (PEG-400), cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB), and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), were usedM and the impact of the surfactants on the precursor sol solutions and precursor powders was studied. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, a field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), a transmission electron microscope (TEM), a Zeta potential meter, a BET surface analyzer, and a vibrational sample magnetometer (VSM) were used to characterize the precursor sol solutions and the precursor powders. The results showed that these surfactants can improve the dispersion state and Zeta potentials of sol particles and increase the specific surface areas of the precursor powders. Moreover, the precursor powders were composed of MnZn ferrite, and some were amorphous. CTAB was the optimum surfactant and the zeta potential of the sol particles and the specific surface area of the precursor powders named P-0.1CTAB are 10.7 mV and 129.07 m2/g, respectively. In addition, the nano-particles that were made up of the P-0.1CTAB precursor powders had smaller sizes and more uniform particle distributions than the others. The magnetic properties’ improvement was attributed to the addition of surfactants, and CTAB is the optimal type. In addition, the novel nano in situ composite method will inspire fresh thinking and investigation into the research of ferrite.

The use of spintronic devices with a tunable magnetic order on small scales is highly important for novel applications. The MAX phases containing transition metals and/or magnetic ion-substituted lattices attract a lot of attention. In this study, the magnetic and electronic properties of (Cr4-xFex)0.5AC (A = Ge, Si, Al) compounds were predicted and investigated within the density functional theory. It was established that single-substituted (Cr3Fe1)0.5AC (A = Ge, Si, Al) lattices are favorable in terms of energy. An analysis of the magnetic states of the MAX phases demonstrated that their spin order changes upon substitution of iron atoms for chromium ones. It was found that mostly the (Cr4-xFex)0.5GeC and (Cr4-xFex)0.5AlC lattices acquire a ferrimagnetic state in contrast to (Cr4-xFex)0.5SiC for which the ferromagnetic spin order dominates. It was pointed out that the atomic substitution could be an efficient way to tune the magnetic properties of proposed (Cr4-xFex)0.5AC (A = Ge, Si, Al) MAX phases.

Soft magnetic composites (SMCs) are composed of alloy materials with the core and insulating layers as the shell. These composites exhibit high saturation magnetic sensitivity and low hysteresis loss, making them a promising material for various applications. The investigation of double layers is considered valuable as it can effectively address the issues of low resistivity and high dynamic loss that arise from non-uniform insulating layers in SMCs. In this study, Fe-Si-Cr/SiO2 particles with a core–shell heterostructure were produced via chemical vapor deposition (CVD). The Fe-Si-Cr/SiO2 materials were coated with different weight percentages (1–6%) of sodium silicate (SS). Subsequently, Fe-Si-Cr-based SMCs were synthesized through high-pressure molding and heat treatment. The effect of the SS weight percentage on microscopic changes and magnetic characteristics was investigated. These findings indicated that a concentration of 4 wt% of SS was the most effective at enhancing magnetic characteristics. The resultant SMCs exhibited high resistivity (21.07 mΩ·cm), the lowest total loss (P10 mt/300 kHz of 44.23 W/kg), a relatively high saturation magnetization (181.8 emu/g), and permeability (35.9). Furthermore, it was observed that the permeability exhibited stabilization at lower frequencies. According to these findings, the combination of CVD and double layers could lead to the further development of SMCs in a variety of applications.

Magnetic fluid is a field-responsive intelligent fluid, which has the flow characteristics of liquid and the elastic properties of solid. Because of its unique properties, it has a strong application prospect in the fields of magnetic soft robot, intelligent sensor, and so on. Dynamic viscoelasticity is a significant index to investigate the performance of magnetic fluid in the application process. In this paper, the dynamic viscoelasticity of a homemade mineral oil-based magnetic fluid was investigated under oscillatory shear experimental conditions using an MCR302 rheometer, and the effects of different temperatures and magnetic fields on the dynamic viscoelasticity were examined. Amplitude sweeps tests showed that the value of the storage modulus remained constant within the linear viscoelastic region (LVE) and the stable structure was not destroyed. As the magnetic field strength increased or the temperature increased, the range of the linear viscoelastic zone decreased. At large amplitude, the loss modulus will first appear as a peak and then decrease. The frequency sweep experiment showed that the storage modulus and loss modulus increased with the increase in angular frequency, and the greater the magnetic field intensity, the longer the internal structure relaxation time. When the magnetic field was constant, the higher the temperature, the smaller the storage modulus and loss modulus of the magnetic fluid. At high temperature, the loss coefficient of mesmeric fluid was large, and the magnetic fluid was more viscous. The lower the temperature is, the smaller the loss coefficient of the magnetic fluid is, and the magnetic fluid is more pliant. The study of dynamic viscoelasticity of magnetic fluids lays the foundation for establishing the complete structure intrinsic relationship of magnetic fluids and provides guidance for the application of magnetic fluids in magnetic 3D printing, droplet robot, and smart wear.

The magnetic, electric, and optical properties in Tb-doped BiFeO3 nanoparticles as functions of size and doping concentrations were investigated using a microscopic model, taking into account both linear and quadratic magnetoelectric (ME) coupling. We observed improved multiferroic properties and band-gap tuning. The magnetization and polarization increased with the decreased nanoparticle size and increased Tb-doping substitution x. The Neel temperature remained nearly unchanged whereas the Curie temperature was reduced with the increased x. There was doping-induced ME coupling. The dielectric constant is discussed as a function of the size, doping, and the magnetic field. The band gap decreased with the decreased size or increased Tb dopants due to competing effects of the compressive strain, oxygen defects on the surface, and Coulomb interactions. Increasing the Tb dopants and decreasing the nanoparticle size improved the ME effect.

Increasing the Tb dopants and decreasing the nanoparticle size improved the ME effect.","PeriodicalId":18194,"journal":{"name":"Magnetochemistry","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2023-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44885660","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study was to investigate the magnetic properties of mixed nanocrystalline Zn/manganese oxide compounds synthesized by a hydrothermal method. These compounds are designed as (ZnO)1−n(MnO)n, where index n ranges from 0.05 to 0.60. The results of magnetic measurements, including AC magnetic susceptibility as a function of temperature (up to 160 K) and frequency (from 7 Hz up to 9970 Hz), as well as DC magnetization in magnetic fields up to 9 T and temperature up to 50 K, are reported. We observed various types of magnetic behavior depending on the nominal weight content of MnO. Samples with a low nominal content (up to n = 0.10) of MnO exhibited Curie–Weiss behavior at higher temperatures. For samples with high nominal weight contribution (from n = 0.30 to 0.60), spin-glass-like or/and weak ferromagnetic behavior is observed.
