“…The reaction of Fe 3+ between bridgmanite and MgFe 2 O 4 ‐phase can be written as:
The FeFeO 3 component has a molar volume of 29.55 cm 3 /mol (Huang, Boffa‐Ballaran, McCammon, Miyajima, & Frost,
2021). Although the volume change of the above reaction is negative at ambient conditions ( ΔV = −0.6 cm 3 /mol), it becomes positive (+0.5 to +0.8 cm 3 /mol) after adjusting to 27–40 GPa using the equation of state for each phase (Dorogokupets,
2010; Ishii et al.,
2020; Tange et al.,
2012). As a result, the FeFeO 3 content in bridgmanite decreases with pressure.…”
