Abstract
Nanoferrites are found to showcase superior and substantially distinct�properties due to the ease with which they can be synthesized and modified chemically. The nanoparticles are synthesized by various methods classified primarily into two categories: top-down and bottom-up methods. Wet chemical synthesis methods offer unlimited control over size distribution and shape of nanoparticles and provide the opportunity of scale-up for production of nanomaterials in bulks for practical application. This chapter covers sol-gel, solvothermal, co-precipitation, thermal decomposition and microwave-assisted methods for the production of nanoferrites. A variety of nanoferrites and its composites with remarkable properties can be synthesized by these methods mentioned in this chapter. � 2021, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
