Abstract: Iron oxide nanoparticles were prepared in non-aqueous solution. The nanoparticles were characterized by FTIR, XRD, TEM, TG-DTA and Mossbauer techniques. Amphous ultrafine FeOOH particles can be obtained at room temperature. Different kinds of iron oxide nanoparticles can be systhesized by controlling the calcining temperature. When calcined at 300℃ for 1h, FeOOH transformed to Fe3-xO4, and the Fe3-xO4 particles size was about 30 nm. α-Fe2O3 can be obtained at the temperature of 450℃ for Ih and its primary particles size increased to98nm.

Key words: non-aqueous, iron oxide nanoparticles, stearic acid, preparation
