Mineral: |
Ferrihydrite |
Reference: |
SBLVD14 |
Preparation: |
prepared by titrating Fe(III) nitrate solution (0.2 M) with 1 M KOH solution to pH 7–8. The red brown suspension was then washed three times with deionised water to eliminate the electrolyte;
sub-samples were freeze dried for X-ray diffraction (XRD) and surface analyses |
Crystallinity: |
highly aggregated particles, nano-crystalline |
Sample characterized via: |
☑ Scanning electron microscope (SEM)
☑ X-ray Diffraction (XRD)
|
