Properties, Storage and Cautions
Iron nanoparticles are highly reactive and flammable, so they must be handled carefully. Rapid movements and vibrations should be avoided. The nanopowder should be kept away from sunlight, heat, moisture, and impacts. Since particle coagulation is a major concern, the powder should be vacuum-sealed and stored in cool, dry conditions with minimal air exposure.
Applications
Iron nanoparticles exhibit strong electrical and magnetic properties, making them suitable for use in magnetic probes, magnetic data storage, vacuum seals, magnetic separators, MRI contrast agents, hard metal degradation, transistor applications, and various related fields.
