CAS 1309-37-1: Iron(III) oxide

NanoArc™ magnetic iron oxide is a highly magnetic material in which the crystallites are >98% γ-phase. This material is suitable for a variety of applications requiring strong magnetic properties and narrow particle.Iron(III) oxide acts as a pigment, in paints, coatings and colored concretes, used in thermalite. Iron oxide is a low cost, nontoxic, ecofriendly catalyst for various reactions such as the oxidation of carbon monoxide, reduction of nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide by CO, photocatalytic splitting of water, Fischer-Tropsch synthesis of hydrocarbons, catalytic decomposition of industrial dyes, water-gas shift reactions, nucleation of diamonds, conversion of phenolic and other environmentally harmful aromatic compounds, dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene to styrene and catalytic oxidations of various organic compounds. It is used in magnetic storage devices and in the production of iron, steel and alloys. It functions as a catalyst in the chemical oxidation of hydrogen peroxide used for the treatment of contaminated water with hydrogen peroxide.This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio.

Ferric oxide is a chemical compound that can be used as an iron source for chemical or biological applications. Ferric oxide has been shown to have a wide range of enzyme activities, including michaelis-menten kinetics, which are important for wastewater treatment. Ferric oxide also has the ability to react with water vapor, which leads to the release of monoamine neurotransmitters and potential biomarkers. The ferric ion is an oxidizing agent and can cause cell lysis in some systems. Ferric oxide is chemically stable in anhydrous sodium carbonate solutions but will react with atmospheric moisture when exposed to air. When ferric oxide reacts with plasma in mass spectrometry, it produces a detectable signal. This reaction model system has been shown to be useful for analysis of trace metal ions in plasma samples.
