摘要

ZnFeCrO4 nanosample was prepared from sulfate starting materials using the flash method at annealing temperatures of 600 °C and 800 °C. In order to confirm that the synthesized samples were within the nanometer size range, structural analysis was performed using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The weak magnetic characteristics of the sample annealed at 600 °C were revealed by the evaluation of the magnetic properties of the samples using a room temperature M-H curve. At the annealing temperature of 800 °C, the sample’s Ms increased by 2.7-fold, and its Hc decreased by 1.14-fold. As a result, the investigated sample at 800 °C could be used for magnetic targeting and separation applications. Moreover, the antimicrobial activities were studied, and it was shown that the sample at 800 °C had higher efficacy than that at 600 °C against N. gonorrhoea. Thus, the investigated sample at 800 °C is a promising candidate for use as an antibacterial nanomaterial.
