Abstract

Halloysite as an impressive natural eco-friendly nanotube with aluminosilicate structure has been investigated recently due to its unique features such as specific morphology and excellent bio-adaptability. In this research, Fe3O4 nanoparticles have been loaded on the tubular halloysite by co-precipitation method in order to synthesis magnetic halloysite (Hal-Fe3O4). To characterize this recoverable nanocatalyst, applicable analyses such as Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis, field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) images, X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern, Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) curves have been carried out. The results confirmed that Fe3O4 nanoparticles with cubic structure, and uniform distribution, were located at halloysite nanotubes (HNTs). This aluminosilicate nanocomposite with high thermal stability, crystalline structure, and stable morphology was evaluated as a heterogeneous catalyst in the symmetrical Hantzsch reaction for the first time. Easy synthesis process, green media, high performance, recoverable catalyst and reusing of the Hal-Fe3O4 as a nanocatalyst for 8 times are the main features of this protocol.
