Magnetite nanoparticles were prepared by a non‐hydrolytic sol–gel (NHSG) process in the presence of benzyl alcohol. The obtained magnetite suspensions were mixed with an aliphatic epoxy resin and the formulations were photo‐polymerized to achieve composite materials with magnetic properties. The prepared magnetite nanoparticles and epoxy composites were fully characterized in terms of their magnetic properties.
