Abstract
Water recovery Management System are the surfaces on which bacterial communities might form biofilms. Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONPs) exhibit unconventional heating in the presence of alternating magnetic fields. The dry size of iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) should be less than 50nm to show superparamagnetic behaviors. The aim of this study is to synthesis monodispersed SPIONPs with coatings to reach the desired size range. Synthesized nanoparticles were tested by Dynamic Light Scattering, Nanoparticle tracking analysis, and Transmission electron microscopy. It was observed that Polyacrylic acid (PAA) coated IONPs displayed great dispersity and enable us to achieve the desired size range.
