The present invention achieves a high-energy product using Ferromagnetic 3D elements such as nanowires and methods of making the same. The high energy products or magnets of the invention are able to achieve high magnetization and maintain the magnetic properties at a greater range of temperatures than currently known magnets. For example, a high energy product includes at least one material A selected from the group consisting essentially of Fe, Co, and Ni, wherein material A is in the form of nanowires formed by a solvothermal chemical process. A high energy product may also include at least one material A selected from the group consisting essentially of Fe, Co, and Ni, and at least one material B selected from the group consisting essentially of Fe, Co, and Ni, wherein material A and material B are in the form of an alloy of nanowires formed by a solvothermal chemical process. |
