Abstract

Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have drawn a lot of interest due to their special qualities, which include large surface area, super para magnetism, and ease of functionalization. These qualities make MNPs perfect for use in electronics, biomedicine, and environmental remediation. This article delivers a critical and nuanced overview, integrating diverse perspectives to advance a deeper understanding of MNP synthesis, characterization, and applications. Typical synthesis methods are covered, such as sol-gel, hydrothermal, thermal decomposition, and co-precipitation. This paper also covers important characterization methods for evaluating the structural and magnetic properties of MNPs, including vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The many uses of MNPs in areas such as environmental pollution control, bio-sensing, and biomedicine are also covered. In addition to offering mechanistic insight into the synthesis, functionalization, and use of MNPs, this thorough analysis also describes the limitations and future possibilities.
