Article Synopsis
  • This study focuses on developing superparamagnetic polymer nanofibers for drug delivery, using magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles synthesized in an aqueous solution.
  • Polymer nanofibers were created through electrospinning using commercially available PHEMA and PLLA, achieving diameters of 50 to 300 nm and demonstrating superparamagnetism with up to 35 wt % magnetite.
  • The magnetic properties, such as saturation magnetization, were evaluated, and fluorescent albumin was incorporated to test the nanofibers' effectiveness as drug carriers and release systems.

2-octyl-1, 3-diphenol-1, 3-propdione was synthesized by phase transfer catalysis and its Sm complexes were prepared. These compounds were characterized by IR, EA, UV and 1H NMR; Sm complex and its mixture doped with PE and PVC show photoluminescence at 650 nm. There is excellent compatibility between Sm complex and plastics by the addition of long carbon chain.
