Production of Ferrite and Pigment Grade High Purity Monodispersed Iron Oxide from Waste Chloride Pickle Liquor and Other Iron Rich Sources.

Production of  mono dispersed hematite particles from chloride waste

Hematite has variety of application as photosensitive material, catalyst, high quality pigments and cosmetics besides its major use as magnetic materials mainly for producing both soft and hard ferrites.

• High purity mono dispersed hematite particles of very uniform sizes and shapes can be produced by low temperature aqueous synthesis route in large quantities with a yield of almost 100% starting from very inexpensive and impure iron sources such as blue dust, scraps, pickle liquors, crude iron oxide, high iron containing residues etc.
• The mono dispersed hematite particles of different shapes such as cubic, spindle, ellipsoidal, spherical, peanut type particle can be produced by this method.
• Different shapes of uniform size mono dispersed hematite particles of size ranging from 200 - 2000 nm can be produced.
