Abstract

Bare Fe3O4 and Fe3O4/zeolite composites have been investigated by Mössbauer spectroscopy. A confined growth of the nanoparticles has been observed after introduction of zeolite in the process of precipitation. Increase in the concentration of zeolite further decrease the particle size. A comparative study on the synthesis with zeolites 13x and ZSM5 has been done. Annealing on these nanoparticles shows that apart from the confinement of nanoparticles, zeolite enhances stability on the nanoparticles.
