A new class of magnetite (FeO) particles, coined as "Single Crystalline Micrometric Iron Oxide Particles" (SCMIOPs), were obtained by hydrothermal synthesis. Both the single FeO phase content and the particle sizes range, from 1 µm to 30 µm, can be controlled by synthesis. The notable finding states that these particles exhibit vanishing remanent magnetization (σr=0.
