In this work we have performed a study of the structural and magnetic properties in Fe3o4@Agx nanostructures (x=0,1,5 and 10%), synthesized by thermal decomposition (DT) and co-precipitation (CP). The samples were characterized by measurements of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The XRD patterns indicate the presence of the Fe3o4 and Ag phase. The mean crystallites size corresponding to the Fe3o4 estimated by using the Scherrer’s equation shows that the nanostructures present not change considerable in the size after insertion of Ag for both growth methods. The TEM images obtained for DT samples reveal that the nanostructures are a like-spherical shape and average sizes of 3 nm which are in good according with size estimated by XRD. The mass loss observed in TG analysis was used to estimate the amount of organic matter present in the samples and consenquently normalize the magnetic measurements. The magnetic characterization was carried out by magnetization measurements as a function of magnetic field (MvsH) and temperature in Zero Field Cooling – Field Cooling (ZFC/FC) modes. These results indicate that the samples present superparamagnetic behavior to start 220 K. Fits of the ZFC / FC curves allowed verify that the magnetic anisotropy constant decreasing as a function of Ag-concentration. Magnetic hyperthermia measurements were performed in the samples synthesized via CP and the specific absorption rate (SAR) was estimated between 8 and 40 W / g.
