Stable nanoparticles of Ni79Fe15Mo6 (at.%) were produced by co-precipitation by NaBH4 in the presence of sucrose, ascorbic acid, and oleic acid. Nanoparticles are initially 3-10 nm in size and encapsulated by organic molecules. These particles clump together producing stable, spherical nanoparticles with an average diameter of 36 nm. Thermal analysis shows that from 600 °C no other mass loss process takes place. Preliminary magnetic measurements at room temperature show a typical behavior of a soft magnetic material, with a Mr of 1.41 emu/g (22% of Ms) and a Hc of 77 Oe. These results indicate that these nanoparticles produced by a simple, cheap, and ecologically friendly route, have a potential for diverse applications, but particularly for applications in the area of human and animal health.
