We investigated the influence of the peptization process on the size and shape of layered double hydroxide magnetic nanoparticles. In this paper, we prepared 1:1 Ni/Al layered double hydroxide magnetic nanoparticles in aqueous solution. By adjusting the peptization temperature and time, we can efficiently control the particle size, shape and size polydispersity, which are important for the formation of oriented films, the liquid-crystalline phase behavior and the stability of Pickering emulsions. The particle growth followed the mechanisms of Ostwald ripening and imperfect oriented attachment. The suspensions peptized at lower temperatures were not well dispersed; while the particles in suspensions peptized at higher temperatures were apt to form larger aggregates. Peptization time also affected the polydispersity. Peptization at 130℃ for 24 h proved to be the optimal synthesis conditions and magnetic measurements showed that this material is paramagnetic.
