“…In this context, the development and improvement of the synthesis methods of materials is an effective strategy for modifying their properties. Various methods for the synthesis of hematite are reported, such as sol-gel, combustion, composite-hydroxide-mediated, template, aqueous solution-based, precipitation, oxalic acid etching process, high energy ball milling, alcohol-thermal reaction, solvothermal, thermal decomposition, catalytic and hydrothermal [1,2,[14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21]. Among these techniques, hydrothermal is one of the most reliable and effective synthesis methods.…”
