    • Iron Carbide: An Ancient Advanced Material 

      Giordano, C; Kraupner, A; Wimbush, SC; Antonietti, M (Wiley, 2010-09-06)
      An “easy‐to‐handle” Fe3C powder constituted of nanoparticles is prepared in a simple, fast and relatively cheap way. The nanoparticles are crystalline, small (d ≈ 8 nm), and superparamagnetic. Despite the absence of any ...

    • Synthesis of Highly Magnetic Iron Carbide Nanoparticles via a Biopolymer Route 

      Schnepp, Z; Wimbush, SC; Antonietti, M; Giordano, C (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2010-09-28)
      In this article, we report a facile, one-pot route to phase-pure Fe3C nanoparticles (mean diameter = 20 nm) that show a remarkably high saturation magnetization (∼130 emu/g), higher than iron oxide (Fe3O4) and comparable ...
