Abstract

Thermolysis of cesium bis (citrato) ferrate (III) trihydrate, Cs3[Fe(C6H5O7)2].3H2O, has been studied in the temperature range of 373–1073 K in static air atmosphere, using Mössbauer and infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetric methods. The anhydrous complex decomposed into an iron (II) intermediate at 453 K and α-Fe2O3 of varying particle sizes in successive stages. Finally a solid state reaction between α-Fe2O3 and cesium carbonate/oxide gives fine particles of cesium ferrite (CsFeO2) at a temperature lower than that of conventional ceramic method.
