Abstract
Magnetic and metallic nanoparticles are the subject ofintense research focusing on their synthesis,characterization, and functionalization. Thesenanomaterials are attractive in various novel applicationsincluding: nano-/bio-sensors, catalyst recovery,antimicrobial, and separation of pollutants, among other.These applications require suitable nanoparticle surfacemodification, which provides colloidal stability in aqueousor biological fluids and improves the nanoparticle'stransport and retention in specific areas.

To control particle size and distribution the thermal-decomposition technique is used employing high boilingsolvents such as 1-octadecene to separate the nucleationand growth stages during particle synthesis.

Thermal-decomposition:
Co-precipitation:
The most common method to synthesize magneticnanoparticles is the co-precipitation of aqueous ironsalts in presence of strong bases such as ammoniumhydroxide or sodium hydroxide. This chemicalprecipitation allows a large scale synthesis of magneticnanoparticles easily and economically.
Typically the co-precipitation route yields magneticnanoparticles with a polydisperse size distribution andresults in formation of cluster-like aggregates.

Reverse Micelles:
Using reverse micelles for nanostructure synthesis takesadvantage of the small size of the micellar water pools,which essentially act as nanoreactors that collide andexchange contents.
Reverse micelles consist of aqueous droplets that areseparated from the bulk organic phase by a surfactantlayer. The diameter (Dh) of these droplets greatlyinfluences the size of the resulting nanoparticles; wefound by Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) measurements,that this value is dependent on the water-surfactantmolar ratio (w) selected for the systemwater/AOT/Isooctane :
