Magnetic oxides are promising materials for alternative health diagnoses and treatments. The aim of this work is to understand the dependence of the heating power with the nanoparticle (NP) mean size, for the manganite composition LaSrMnO (LSMO)-the one with maximum critical temperature for the whole La/Sr ratio of the series. We have prepared four different samples, each one annealed at different temperatures, in order to produce different mean NP sizes, ranging from 26 nm up to 106 nm. Magnetization measurements revealed a FC-ZFC irreversibility and from the coercive field as function of temperature we determined the blocking temperature. A phase diagram was delivered as a function of the NP mean size and, based on this, the heating mechanism understood. Small NPs (26 nm) is heated up within the paramagnetic range of temperature (T>Tc), and therefore provide low heating efficiency; while bigger NPs are heated up, from room temperature, within the magnetically blocked range of temperature (T

The effects of 5.8-GHz microwave (MW) irradiation on the synthesis of mesoporous selenium nanoparticles (mSeNPs) in aqueous medium by reduction of selenite ions with ascorbic acid, using zinc nanoparticles as a hard template and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as a micellar template, are examined for the first time with a particular emphasis on MW-particle interactions and the NPs morphology. This MW-assisted synthesis is compared to 2.

The design of multifunctional, high-performance wearable heaters utilizing textile substrates has garnered increasing attention, particularly in the development of body temperature and health monitoring devices. However, fabricating these multifunctional wearable heaters while simultaneously ensuring flexibility, air permeability, Joule heating performance, electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and antibacterial properties remains a significant challenge. This study utilizes phase transition lysozyme (PTL) film-mediated electroless deposition (ELD) technology to deposit silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) on the cotton fabrics surface in a mild aqueous solution at room temperature, thereby constructing a wearable heater with long-term stability, high conductivity, and exceptional photothermal properties.

Treating burn lesions has always been challenging because any product should be cheap, accessible, and have anti-bacterial commodities and tissue regeneration properties. The green synthesis of magnesium oxide nanoparticles (GS-MgONPs) can create an optimal prospect that is safe with low toxicity in biological tissue and better safety for application while including the antibacterial effect. This recent study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of burn wound treatment using GS-MgONPs in rats.

Transition metal phosphide (TMP) nanoparticles (NPs) are versatile materials for energy conversion/storage applications due to their robustness and many possibilities to tailor NPs' electronic, physical, and chemical properties. One of the hurdles toward their broader implementation is their challenging synthesis exacerbated by the limited choice of phosphorus precursors. On the one hand, the synthesis of TMP NPs can employ various alkyl- or arylphosphines requiring prolonged heating at high temperatures, while on the other hand, highly reactive P(SiMe), white phosphorus, or PH pose additional obstacles associated with their hazardous nature, high cost, and limited availability.

Precise tuning of ligands and a comprehensive understanding of their roles and functionalities are crucial for the design of nanoparticles (NPs) with tailored properties. In this study, we present the synthesis of copper NPs with precise control over their shape and crystallinity, relying on the remarkable versatility of oleylamine (OLA) as both a solvent and a ligand. By adjusting the temperature, OLA enables the formation of cubic NPs under rapid heating, reflecting kinetic control, and octahedral NPs with slow heating, indicating thermodynamic control.
