    摘要: Digestion of impure alumina with sulfuric acid dissolves all constituents except silica. The resulting sulfates—aluminum sulfate, ferric sulfate, titanyl sulfate, and magnesium sulfate for alumina contaminated with iron-, titanium-, and/or magnesium-containing species—remain in solution at approximately 90° C. Hot filtration separates silica. Solution flow over metallic iron reduces ferric sulfate to ferrous sulfate. Controlled ammonia addition promotes hydrolysis and precipitation of hydrated titania from titanyl sulfate that is removed by filtration. Addition of ammonium sulfate forms ferrous ammonium sulfate and ammonium aluminum sulfate solutions. Alum is preferentially separated by crystallization. Addition of ammonium bicarbonate to an ammonium alum solution precipitates ammonium aluminum carbonate which may be heated to produce alumina, ammonia, and carbon dioxide. The remaining iron rich liquor also contains magnesium sulfate. The addition of oxalic acid generates insoluble ferrous oxalate which is thermally decomposed to ferrous oxide and carbon monoxide which is used to reduce the ferrous oxide to metallic iron. Further oxalic acid addition precipitates magnesium oxalate which is thermally decomposed to magnesium oxide.

    摘要: The present invention relates to an urchin-like iron oxide and a method for producing the urchin-like iron oxide. The urchin-like iron oxide comprises a core and multiple needle-like elongations protruded from the core. The needle-like elongations could be wire, rod, tube, cone, and flake. The length/width ratio of the needle-like elongation is high enough to apply in an optoelectronic field. The method in accordance with the present invention is to stably heat an iron-contained powder under room temperature by a thermal oxidation. The surface of the iron-contained powder is slow oxidized to form an urchin-like iron oxide with multiple uniform distributed needle-like elongations protruded from the surface. The size of each needle-like elongation is easily adjusted and changed by controlling the heating temperature. The method has advantages of simplified operation and lowered expense.
