An investigation of the microscopic and macroscopic properties of magnetic fluids

The investigated samples were Isopar M-based magnetic fluids, with magnetite particles (sample S1), Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 particles (sample S2) and Mn0.66Zn0.34Fe2O4 particles (sample S3). In the investigated frequency range ferromagnetic resonance occurs at a frequency, fres, and a corresponding maximum absorption occurs at a frequency fmax. From a plot of fres against H, average values of the anisotropy constant, , anisotropy field, , and gyromagnetic ratio, γ are determined. From a plot of fmax/fres against H the damping parameter, α, is obtained. Also, for each sample, an estimate is made of the particles magnetic viscosity, ηm, together with τ0, the pre-exponential factor of Brown&#39;s equation for the Néel relaxation time, τN, of the magnetic moment of superparamagnetic particles and τN itself.

Polarizing Field and Particle Concentration Dependence of the Magnetic Loss Power in Ferrofluids

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2009

The frequency (f) and polarizing field (H) dependence of the complex magnetic permeability μ(f,H)... more The frequency (f) and polarizing field (H) dependence of the complex magnetic permeability μ(f,H) = μ′(f,H)−iμ″(f,H), of different magnetic fluid samples, over the range 100 MHz to 6 GHz and 0 to 102.4 kA∕m, respectively, were analyzed. Starting from an initial magnetic fluid sample (sample A) with magnetite particles dispersed in kerosene and stabilized with oleic acid, having particle concentration n = 19.16⋅1022 m−3, three samples were obtained by successive dilution with kerosene (with a dilution ratio 2:3) (samples A1, A2, and A3). Based on the complex magnetic permeability measurements of each sample, and for each field value, values of the specific magnetic loss power were obtained. We have also studied the dependence on particle concentration of the magnetic loss power, both in zero polarizing field and in the presence of the polarizing field.

The influence of particle concentration and polarizing field on the resonant behaviour of magnetic fluids

It is also shown that f res and the corresponding maximum absorption frequency, f max , are different, thus supporting the deductions of Scaife, who arrived at this conclusion using an alternative theoretical approach. Furthermore, based on complex magnetic susceptibility measurements, over the frequency range 100 MHz-6 GHz, the dependence of the ratio f max / f res on an external polarizing magnetic field, H pol , over the approximate range 0 and 1.3 kOe and on particle concentration has been examined for different magnetic fluid samples. It is demonstrated how the ratio f max / f res tends to unity both by (i) increasing the polarizing field and (ii) decreasing the particle concentration of the samples.

Determination of the radius of nano-particles in a magnetic fluid by means of a constant frequency measurement technique

The technique of placing a fluid sample in a cylindrical coil positioned between the poles of a magnet and determining the susceptibility, at a fixed frequency, when the long axis of the sample is (1) parallel (χ∥(H0)) and (2) perpendicular (χ⊥(H0)), to H0, provides a convenient method for the determination of the magnetic moment, and hence the effective particle size, of nano-particles in magnetic fluids. Two magnetic fluids samples consisting of magnetite and cobalt-zinc ferrite particles, respectively, are investigated and the results obtained are found to be in good agreement with those of the manufacturer. As the samples are cylindrical in shape, the demagnetizing field, HD, for both the perpendicular and parallel orientations of the samples, is accounted for in calculating χ∥(H0) and χ⊥(H0).

Investigation of the field dependence of magnetic fluids exhibiting aggregation

By means of the application of a polarising field, H (A/m), the field dependence of the complex susceptibility of the aggregates, χ(ω, H), the frequency dependent loss tangent, tanδ and mean power loss, T (J/m3), are investigated for polarising fields over the approximate range 0–13.6 kA/m. It is shown that the plots of both χ(ω), H and tanδ may be fitted in terms of the Cole–Cole parameter, α, and it is demonstrated how the fits can be used to determine data outside the measurement frequency range. A novel method for determining the tanδ data is also presented. It is also shown how, with increase in polarising field, the magnetic losses of the fluid are reduced.

Magnetite-cobalt ferrite nanoparticles for kerosene-based magnetic fluids

Magnetic fluids with magnetite-cobalt ferrite nanoparticles given by the formula Co(x)Fe(3−x)O4 with x=0, 0.2 and 0.4 were prepared. Kerosene and oleic acid were used as liquid carrier and surfactant, respectively.

Dynamic properties of a system of cobalt nanoparticles

The transition of the cobalt particles to the superparamagnetic state are supported by the temperature dependencies of field cooling (FC) and zero field cooling (ZFC) magnetization measurements. From these measurements, which show a typical blocking behaviour of an assembly of superparamagnetic particles with a wide distribution of blocking temperatures, the exponential pre-factor τ0 of Brown's equations for Néel relaxation, is found to be equal to 9.2 × 10 −10 s. Measurement of the complex susceptibility χ(ω) over this broad frequency range, with an upper frequency value corresponding to three times that previously reported in our measurements on cobalt, has enabled the presence of both resonance and Néel relaxation mechanisms to be identified. From the Néel component, a further value for τ0 was evaluated and shown to be in close agreement with that obtained from the ZFC data. Data on the after-effect function, realised by Fourier transformation of the χ (ω) component, is also presented.

The colloidal stabilization of the magnetic fluids has been investigated using magneto-optical measurements. Based on complex magnetic susceptibility measurements, χ(ω) = χ (ω)iχ (ω), the dependence of the maximum absorption frequency at resonance, f max , and of line width, f , on an external magnetic polarizing field, H , over the range 0-1.45 kOe, has been examined for both magnetic fluids. The experimental results have been interpreted in terms of magnetic interparticle interactions and particle agglomeration.

The mean sizes of the particles were 10.2, 7.4 and 5.2 nm, respectively. The transition temperatures to the superparamagnetic state and values of crystal magnetic anisotropy have been evaluated. The transition to the superparamagnetic state was observed at temperatures below the freezing point of the carrier liquid for the 5.2 nm and 7.4 nm particles and above its freezing point for the 10.2 nm particles. A multi-level model is used in the analysis of the Mössbauer spectra and in the calculation of the hyperfine magnetic field.

It is shown that the sample with the highest concentration of particles has the highest permittivity and by means of profile fitting it is demonstrated, for the first time, that σ(ω) has a Debye-type profile.The frequency limitation of the used measurement technique is highlighted and a possible alternative technique capable of measuring in the 20–30GHz region is presented.
