Magnetic measurements indicated that the Fe(3)O(4) nanoparticles are isolated by the AC particles. The magnetic fluid obtained by dispersion of the nanocomposite in water is found to be relatively stable. The dispersion is found to be very efficient for the removal of methylene blue dye from water. Thus, the nanocomposite is highly suitable for removing dissolved dyes and other contaminants from waste water by a simple magnetic separation process after adsorption on AC.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">0.42</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Thakuria, Pankaj</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Joy, Pattayil Alias</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">High room temperature ferromagnetic moment of Ho substituted nanocrystalline BiFeO3</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Applied Physics Letters</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2010</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">OCT</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">16</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">AMER INST PHYSICS</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">CIRCULATION &amp; FULFILLMENT DIV, 2 HUNTINGTON QUADRANGLE, STE 1 N O 1, MELVILLE, NY 11747-4501 USA</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">97</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">162504</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Magnetic properties of trivalent rare-earth ion substituted nanocrystalline BiFeO3 have been studied for the compositions Bi0.875R0.125FeO3 (R=La, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, and Yb). All compositions show ferromagnetic characteristics at room temperature, with enhanced magnetization after substitution. Very high magnetization (at 6 T), almost three times that of the unsubstituted composition, is observed for R=Ho, and highest remnant magnetization is obtained for R=Nd and Sm. The magnetic transition temperature is increased by similar to 20 K for R=La. The results show that it is possible to tune the magnetic characteristics of the nanocrystalline multiferroic BiFeO3 by the choice of the rare-earth ion. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics.
