The thermal synthesis of maghemite nanoflowers is investigated, using iron chlorides in the presence of sodium hydroxide in a solvent mixture of N-methyldiethanolamine and diethylene glycol. A coating routine is developed to obtain a thin polymer film containing evenly dispersed magnetic nanoflowers.
