This research is devoted for the synthesis of Fe oxide and Fe nanoparticles (NPs) via, respectively, thermal decomposition of iron(III) oleate and H2 reduction of either iron(III) oleate or iron oxide NPs in a NaCl matrix. Lowering the weight ratios of metal precursor to NaCl and synthesis temperature results in smaller particle sizes. A higher uniformity of Fe NPs can be achieved with a two-step synthesis, that is, thermal decomposition of iron oleate followed by H2 reduction of iron oxides, with the milling of iron oxides and NaCl prior to the reduction step. Fe NPs obtained in this study are stable in the air for long-time storage. It is found that thin oxide and C layers on the particle surface are responsible for their stability.
