Enhanced control and production rates for a green continuous flow synthesis of magnetite nanoparticles: a comparative study of ethylenediamine additives.

ABSTRACT: Scalable synthesis of precise magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs) with controlled properties remains a key challenge for applications in biomedical technologies, data storage, and environmental remediation. Bioinspired additive-driven methods offer greener, tunable synthesis routes, but often suffer from low production rates and limited scalability. Here we demonstrate that our green co-precipitation synthesis with ethylenediamine additives, using continuous static mixing, offers exceptional particle control along with a staggering theoretical production rate of up to 311 g per day, representing a fivefold increase over previously reported methods. This study presents a comprehensive comparison of five ethylenediamine-based additives - EDA, DETA, TETA, TEPA, and PEHA - across three systems: bat
