We discuss the application of EBSD for the analysis of structural features of magnetite and hematite relevant in the topotactic growth of both phases. The orientation relationships of both phases are investigated using characteristically related sets of Kikuchi patterns, which were collected from topotactically intergrown hematite variants and their parent magnetite crystal grain. We address the hexagonal description of trigonal and cubic phases with respect to crystallographic relationships. The combination of locally resolved EBSD measurements and microstructural investigations thus offers a promising opportunity to evaluate orientation relationships and intergrowth between magnetite and hematite.
The investigation of iron-doped AlO(OH)/Al2O3 systems revealed that the combined employment of Mössbauer and ESR spectroscopies together with thermal analysis yields meaningful data with complementary information. This mutual complementarity is based on the coexistence of Fe point defects with the corresponding aggregated FeOx species which has been observed even for very low Fe concentrations. Competing redox processes between the dopant, the AlOx matrix, and the gas atmosphere during the thermal treatment enable the generation of solid phases exhibiting specific chemical properties. The entire reaction process is influenced by a specific mechanical and thermal pre-treatment that affects predominantly oxydative processes in the matrix. A protecting influence of the matrix preventing further reductive attack of the Fe3+ Fe2+ ions by hydrogen has been established.
The graft polymerization of ε-caprolactone (ε-CL) onto magnetite was carried out under microwave irradiation in the presence of tin(II) 2-ethylhexanoate. The molar ratio of ε-CL to tin(II) 2-ethylhexanoate was 300, whereas the molar ratio of ε-CL to magnetite was 5. The chemical structures of the obtained poly(ε-caprolactone) coated magnetic nanoparticles were characterized by FTIR and XPS spectroscopy. These magnetic-polymer hybrid nanostructures were further investigated by X-ray diffraction and magnetization measurements. The morphology of the magnetic core-shell nanostructures were determined by TEM.
