Abstract

In this work, a simple methodology to synthesize Fe3O4@SiO2 nanocomposites, using the precipitation method for Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) and the modified Stöber method to incorporate a SiO2 shell into the NPs has been developed. By incorporating a shell or coating layer of SiO2, the properties of silicon fused to Fe3O4, reduce Fe3O4 toxicity for drugs encapsulation or markers within the SiO2 shell. For such applications, is of special interest to measure the thermal properties such as thermal diffusivity, thermal effusivity and to calculate the thermal conductivity as function of Fe3O4@SiO2 concentration. The thermal wave resonant cavity (TWRC) characterization technique was used to measure the thermal diffusivity and effusivity of the Fe3O4@SiO2 nanofluids. For concentrations of 0.00171 vol % to 0.01718 vol % the values of thermal diffusivity were between 1.3 × 10–7 m2·s−1 and 5.5 × 10–7 m2·s−1. For the thermal effusivity the values were: 1450 ± 39 Ws1/2·m−2·K−1 to 1646 ± 29 Ws1/2·m−2·K−1. From the relationship between the thermal diffusivity and the thermal effusivity, the values for thermal conductivity were between 0.52 W·m−1·K−1 and 1.25 W·m−1·K−1. Therefore, these superparamagnetic systems of Fe3O4@SiO2 are a promising option for applications in biomedicine, as well as in hyperthermia therapies, drug delivery and imaging, among others.
