The morphology and size of MNPs (Magnetic Nanoparticles) are largely determined by the synthesis method and route. Rice spindle magnetite can be synthesized via co-precipitation in the absence of oxygen. Similarly, magnetite of different shapes and sizes can be oxidized to form γ-Fe2O3 (magnetic). N...
