For a few decades, growing development in chemical synthesis of nanomaterials and material surface modification have been seen and performed in numerous applications including biomedicine, biotechnology, catalysis, magnetic chemistry thermoelectric materials, etc. Various methods for fabrication of MNPs which have a controllable size, distribution, and surface modification have been reported. In these methods, several techniques containing irradiation, microwave, ultrasonication, vapor deposition, electrochemical, and microwave are applied to produce MNPs either in bottom-up or top-down processes. Generally, magnetic synthesis of nanoparticles is carried out by using these two processes. Nanomaterials with magnetic properties have wide applications in many fields such as biology, medicine, and engineering. In this section, the recent developments in the structures, occurrences, most commonly used samples, and common areas of use of the MNPs are given. © 2021 Elsevier Inc.
