Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONs) are extensively used in biomedical applications due to their unique magnetic properties. This study optimized ION synthesis via the co-precipitation method, exploring impact of reactant concentrations (Fe(II) and Fe(III)), NaOH concentration, temperature (30 °C–80 °C), stirring speed (0–1000 rpm), dosing rate (10–600 s) on particle size growth. Using small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), we observed, for example, that higher temperatures (e.g., 67 °C compared with 53 °C) led a 50% increase size, while concentration also influenced nucleation aggregation. These results provide comprehensive insights into optimizing synthetic conditions targeted fields, such as drug delivery resonance imaging (MRI), where precise control over nanoparticle properties is crucial.
