Here, we present the low-temperature (similar to 600 degrees C) solution combustion method for the fabrication of CoFe2O4, NiFe2O4, and Co0.5Ni0.5Fe2O4 nanoparticles (NPs) of 12-64 nm range in pure cubic spinel structure, by adjusting the oxidant (nitrate ions)/reductant (glycine) ratio in the reaction mixture. Although nitrate ions/glycine (N/G) ratios of 3 and 6 were used for the synthesis, phase-pure NPs could be obtained only for the N/G ratio of 6. For the N/G ratio 3, certain amount of Ni2+ cations was reduced to metallic nickel. The NH3 gas generated during the thermal decomposition of the amino acid (glycine, H2NCH2COOH) induced the reduction reaction. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, vibrating sample magnetometry, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy techniques were utilized to characterize the synthesized materials. XRD analyses of the samples indicate that the Co0.5Ni0.5Fe2O4 NPs have lattice parameter larger than that of NiFe2O4, but smaller than that of CoFe2O4 NPs. Although the saturation magnetization (M-s) of Co0.5Ni0.5Fe2O4 NPs lies in between the saturation magnetization values of CoFe2O4 and NiFe2O4 NPs, high coercivity (H-c, 875 Oe) of the NPs indicate their hard ferromagnetic behavior. Catalytic behavior of the fabricated spinel NPs revealed that the samples containing metallic Ni are active catalysts for the degradation of 4-nitrophenol in aqueous medium.
