Core-Shell Nanostructure of α-Fe2O3/Fe3O4: Synthesis and Photocatalysis for Methyl Orange

Fe3O4 nanoparticle was synthesized in the solution involving water and ethanol. Then, α-Fe2O3 shell was produced in situ on the surface of the Fe3O4 nanoparticle by surface oxidation in molten salts, forming α-Fe2O3/Fe3O4 core-shell nanostructure. It was showed that the magnetic properties transform...
