Summary: | Magnetic hybrid colloidal particles can be characterized using various techniques and numerous tools leading generally to particles size, size distribution, and electrokinetic properties. However, the chemical composition of these hybrid particles can be estimated using thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). More interestingly, the combination of this quantitative technique with the magnetization measurement leads not only to chemical composition but also to the overall polymerization conversion and more precisely to the polymerization conversion on the seed particles. In fact, the TGA performed on dried magnetic particles leads to exact organic/inorganic chemical composition. Regarding the magnetization, the amount of magnetic material can be deduced, and consequently, the amount of non‐magnetic material can be also estimated. Thus, TGA and magnetization measurements are considered as complementary techniques for characterization of magnetic hybrid colloidal particles. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. |
