    Magnetically activated 3D printable polylactic acid/polycaprolactone/magnetite composites for magnetic induction heating generation

    Additive manufacturing technology has attracted the attention of industrial and technological sectors due to the versatility of the design and the easy manufacture of structural and functional elements based on composite materials. The embedding of magnetic nanoparticles in the polymeric matrix enables the development of an easy manufacturing process of low-cost magnetically active novel polymeric composites. In this work, we report a series of magnetic composites prepared by solution casting method combining 5 to 60 wt.% of 140 ± 50 nm commercial Fe3O4 nanoparticles, with a semi-crystalline, biocompatible, and biodegradable polymeric blend made of polylactic acid (PLA) and polycaprolactone (PCL). The composites were extruded, obtaining 1.5 ± 0.2 mm diameter continuous and flexible filaments for fused deposition modelling 3D printing. The chemical, magnetic, and calorimetric properties of the obtained filaments were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, magnetometry, and scanning electron microscopy. Furthermore, taking advantage of the magnetic character of the filaments, their capability to generate heat under the application of low-frequency alternating magnetic fields (magnetic induction heating) was analyzed. The obtained results expose the versatility of these easy manufacturing and low-cost filaments, where selecting a desired composition, the heating capacity can be properly adjusted for those applications where magnetic induction plays a key role (i.e., magnetic hyperthermia, drug release, heterogeneous catalysis, water electrolysis, gas capture, or materials synthesis).

    Effect of Cu substitution on the magnetic and magnetic induction heating response of CdFe₂O₄ spinel ferrite
    (Elsevier, 2020) Ghasemi, R.; Echeverría Morrás, Jesús; Pérez de Landazábal Berganzo, José Ignacio; Beato López, Juan Jesús; Naseri, M.; Gómez Polo, Cristina; Zientziak; Institute for Advanced Materials and Mathematics - INAMAT2; Ciencias
    In this work, a comparative study of the effect of Cu on the structural, magnetic and magnetic induction heating response in CdFe2O4 spinel is presented. The ceramic nanoparticles (Cu1−xCdxFe2O4; 0 ≤ x ≤ 1) were synthesized by co-precipitation from Cu(II), Cd(II) and Fe(III) salts. The samples, characterized by X-ray diffractometry, display the characteristic spinel cubic structure (space group Fm3m) where CdO is detected as main secondary phase (≈ 16% weight for x = 1). A high degree of nanoparticle agglomeration is inferred from the Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) images, as a consequence of the employed synthesis procedure. Regarding the magnetic properties, superparamagnetic behavior at room temperature can be disregarded according to the low field magnetization response (ZFC-FC curves). For 0.4 ≤ x ≤ 0.8 ratios, the samples display maximum values in the magnetic moment that should be correlated to the cation distribution between the octahedral and tetrahedral sites. Maximum magnetization values lead to an enhancement in the magnetic induction heating response characterized by highest heating temperatures under the action of an ac magnetic field. In particular, maximum SAR values are estimated for x = 0.8 as a combined effect of high magnetic moment, low dc coercive field (high susceptibility). Although these Cu-Cd ferrite nanoparticles display moderate SAR values (around 0.7 W/g), the control of the maximum heating temperatures through the cation distribution (composition) provides promising properties to be used as nanosized heating elements (i.e. hyperthermia agents).
