The chitosan magnetic complex was prepared by coating chitosan on the surface of Fe3O4 powders through Microlatex-Crosslinking Method. The product was characterized by IR,XRD,TEM,Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM),TG methods. Results show that the as-prepared powder is 25 nm in size and shows supermagnetism. The content of magnetite in microspheres is 37.8%. The mechanism for the coating reaction of chitosan to Fe3O4 nanoparticles is also suggested.展开更多
