Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) have previously been employed in various fields owing to their unique physical and chemical properties. In this paper, Fe3O4 NPs are prepared by co-precipitation method in a helical microreactor under different reaction conditions which affect the size of Fe3O4 NPs. The product is characterized by FT-IR and XPS. Also, VSM characterization shows that Fe3O4 exhibits typical superparamagnetic behavior and the saturation magnetization of NPs is 53 emu/g.
