Abstract
Methods and apparatus for producing a magnetic nanoparticle suitable for additive manufacturing techniques includes providing a solution having a plurality of metallic precursors to produce magnetic nanoparticles, a coordinating solvent, and a chelating agent. The solution is mixed and heated to grow nanoparticles wherein magnetic nanoparticles are formed. The solution is then cooled and a magnetic field is applied to the solution wherein ferrite nanoparticles are at least partially separated by size.
