Study of the magnetic properties of nanostructural metal complexes of chitosan

Abstract Nanostructured polymeric metal complexes based on chitosan with Co2+, Mn2+, Cu2+ have been obtained. The role of the precipitant in the formation of nanoparticles with certain sizes is shown. Optimal morphologies for the creation of new and promising nanostructured metal-polymer materials with magnetic properties have been identified. A correlation has been established between the magnetic characteristics of polymeric metal complexes based on chitosan with metal ions of the 3-d transition series with their structural features.
