Abstract
Preparation of Co and Fe ferromagnetic colloids using a mixture of oil-soluble surfactants and a saturated hydrocarbon oil is described. Amines with long-chain lipophilic alkyl radicals and sulfonates were used as the surfactants, and a drum was rotated to draw the liquid into a film while evaporating the metal in vacuum, gradually increasing the colloid concentration in the liquid. Monodisperse colloidal particles of uniform size (about 50 Ã
) were obtained. Co colloids formed in this way were super-paramagnetic at 246 K and above, and the colloidal particle concentration was 6 Ã 1016 to 2 Ã 1017. The temperature of transition to ferromagnetism varied with the surfactant used.
