The phase behavior of acidic samples of EDL-MF based on cobalt ferrite nanoparticles with controlled mean sizes was investigated at constant temperature and in absence of magnetic field. By monitoring the nanoparticle charge by pH adjustments, we constructed an experimental pH-dependent phase diagram for all samples that revealed sol, gel thixotropic or coagulated phases in different pH regions. Then, by using an extended DLVO potential we analyzed quantitatively the observed phase diagram in function of pH and nanoparticle mean size.

The properties of lyotropic ferronematic liquid crystals based on new Ni, Cu and Zn ionic magnetic fluids are discussed. The efficiency of these new ferrofluids in the lyotropic nematic liquid crystal doping is verified and compared with the conventional surfacted ferro fluid lyotropic doping. It was observed that the structural characteristics of the lyotropics and ferro fluids determine the good formation of the ferronematics.

Magnetic birefringence measurements are performed under a static field on Electric Double Layered Magnetic Fluids based on copper and zinc ferrite nanostructures. The optical birefringence is related to a single-particle effect and well described by a Langevin model which includes a log- normal distribution of particles. By the field-induced birefringence level, these new magnetic fluids are comparable to usual ones, a result which could offer a new way for biological applications.
