What Are the Applications of Magnetic Nanomaterials?
Magnetic nanomaterials have a wide range of applications, including:
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI): Superparamagnetic nanoparticles are used as contrast agents to enhance the quality of MRI scans. Drug Delivery: Magnetic nanoparticles can be directed to specific locations in the body using external magnetic fields, allowing for targeted therapy. Hyperthermia Treatment: Magnetic nanoparticles can be heated using an alternating magnetic field to destroy cancer cells. Data Storage Devices: Magnetic nanomaterials are used in the development of high-density storage devices like hard drives and magnetic random-access memory (MRAM).
