Single-crystalline dodecahedral α-Fe2O3 particles with nanometer size: synthesis and characterization
Source abstract
Abstract
Dodecahedral α-Fe2O3 particles enclosed by twelve (101) planes were synthesized under the assistance of F– ions, and the particle size was controlled to about 150 nm by affecting the nucleation process of α-Fe2O3. It is interesting to find that its particle size to some extent depends on the second ligand (L) in [FeF a (L) b (OH) c (H2O) 6-a-b-c ](3-a-b-c)+ ions, which are the real situation of Fe3+ ions in aqueous solution. The synthesized dodecahedral α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles show enhanced catalytic properties in the thermal decomposition of ammonium perchlorate (AP), and that can be attributed to the exposure of (101) planes and its small particle size.
