Magnetite nanoparticles have a high potential for diverse applications like waste-water treatment, catalysis, and hybrid materials. Formic acid and phosphoric acid can be viewed as the smallest representatives of the acids, which are used to functionalize magnetite nanoparticles. Here, we present results from density functional theory (DFT) calculations on the adsorption of such acids on magnetite low index surfaces. For modelling the adsorption, the configuration space is a challenge and here an approach is presented which allows to sample the adsorption configuration space and to select configurations as input for DFT calculations using unsupervised machine learning approaches. The resulting structures allow for in-depth analyses of the systems including structural and electronic effects.
