“…89-0951), respectively. However, all peak intensities of Fe 2 O 3 weakened, and the phenomenon of phase transformation of the Fe species started to appear, which is probably due to the partial reduction of Fe 2 O 3 to Fe 3 O 4 in the temperature range of 500–600 °C. , When the thermal reduction temperature is up to 700 °C, the featured diffraction peaks of Fe 2 O 3 almost vanish completely, while the diffraction peaks of Fe 3 O 4 become sharper, further indicating that the carbothermal reduction reaction is proceeding fiercely, and better crystallinity of Fe 3 O 4 can be obtained at this temperature. Afterward, the temperature further increases to 800–900 °C, and new characteristic peaks at ∼21.2, ∼23.2, ∼27.3, and ∼29.7° appear, which are assigned to the (002), (201), (210), and (202) lattice planes of NaAlSiO 4 (JCPDS No.…”
