Mössbauer Study of the Structure and Decomposition of Wustite

Abstract: A series of Mössbauer, x-ray, and magnetic measurements has been made on wustite (Fe1−xO). The main new results are: (a) The dependence of the Mössbauer quadrupole splitting on heat treatment is very similar to that of the atomic constant, confirming Hoffman's conclusions on the variation of x. (b) The Zeeman Mössbauer lines of untreated wustite below the Curie temperature are completely smeared out; for a sample treated so as to give minimum quadrupole splitting (minimum x) these… Show more

“…This is consistent with the reported decomposition of wüstite. 42 The magnetite crystals present in the iron oxide cores have a cubic phase with cell parameters a = c = 8.3969 Å and space group Fd true3 m (227) (JCPDS card no. 98-000-0294).…”

“…However, this trend changes at a temperature of around 823 K (550°C), which is probably related both to the ''Curie point'' effect, where Fe 3 O 4 loses magnetism, and to the reproduction of Fe 0.925 O. [16] Thus, the thermal decomposition of Fe 0.925 O hinders the determination of the dielectric and magnetic properties of ''true'' Fe 0.925 O from~473 K to~823 K (~200°C to~550°C) . At the temperature higher than 823 K (550°C), however, this ''disturbance'' can be excluded due to the regeneration of nonstoichiometric ferrous oxide.…”

“…This observation is in agreement with previous research, which shows that the ferrous oxide is thermodynamically unstable below 848 K (575°C), dissociating to metal and Fe 3 O 4 . [12,13,16] According to this investigation, the reaction can be expressed as follows:…”

“…Mössbauer data obtained at lower temperatures ͑not shown͒ exhibited the Fe 1Ϫx O Néel transition near 200 K, as expected. 8 The unusual cyclic magnetic behavior is therefore due to the metastable nature of Fe 1Ϫx O. This material is stable only above 570°C, but is metastable below about 200°C.…”
