Abstract (EN): Magnetic ferrite nanoparticles are being applied in diversified areas of technology because of their unique magnetic, chemical, and structural properties. The recent advances in the architecture design of multifunctional magnetic nanoferrites with fine-tuned properties boosted the birth of innovative applications. This chapter provides an overview on the burgeoning field of magnetic nanoferrites and their rich scope of applications. It will start with an introduction to diversity of synthesis methods to fabricate ferrite magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). Afterward, a brief description of the characterization techniques and the best analysis practices that should be used for an accurate determination of the properties of MNPs is provided, namely, morphology, particle size and size distribution, structure/chemical composition, and magnetic properties. The rich scope of applications of ferrite MNPs is highlighted by the main emerging areas of magnetic hyperthermia, magnetic resonance imaging, and eco-sustainable catalysis. Several case studies are presented, remarking the best results on the state of the art and the key factors governing the enhanced performance. Finally, the new trends and future perspectives of ferrite MNPs are provided.
