Abstract

Superparamagnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles decorated multiwalled carbon nanotubes were synthesized by cyclic microwave method and the effect of different reaction parameters on the products were also investigated. The as synthesized products were characterized by XRD, TEM, SEM, EDS, FT-IR, VSM, and Uv–Vis spectroscopy. It was observed that precursors’ concentration ratio had great effect on the particle size and decorating quality. Also the effect of the other parameters including irradiation power and time on product size and uniformity of the product were also investigated. The best products with desired particle size distribution obtained when irradiation power and reaction time were 900 W and 6 min, respectively. Aspirin and acetaminophen were applied as a model drug and the drug release behavior of the composite was investigated. It was observed that the drug discharge was highly dependent to the pH and can be tuned by applying magnetic field.
