<![CDATA[Iron oxide (Fe3O4) nanoparticles have been synthesized using coprecipitation method. Characterization of the magnetic properties of iron oxide (Fe3O4) nanoparticles using Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) shows a loop hysteresis curve on Fe3O4 magnetite nanoparticles with a value of Mr 7.7 emu/g at 0 kOe field, Ms 68.2 emu/g at an external field 14 ,61 kOe. A low Mr value or close to zero indicates that the Fe3O4 nanoparticle material is softmagnetic. Fe3O4 nanoparticles that had been modified with PEG-4000 polymer showed a Ms value of 55.7 emu/g in a 14 kOe field, an Hc coercivity field of about 60 Oe, and a Mr. 6.3 emu/g value in a 0 kOe field. The smaller the particle size, the more likely the material has a single magnetic domain. The smaller the sample particle size, the smaller the remanent magnetization value. The smaller the value of remanent magnetization, the residual magnetization that is still possessed by a material/sample when it is not affected by an external magnetic field is also greater.]]>
