Red iron(III) oxide (Fe 2 O 3, commonly known as rust) is the most common iron oxide used in thermite. [ 14 ] [ 15 ] [ 16 ] Black iron(II,III) oxide (Fe 3 O 4 , magnetite ) also works. [ 17 ] Other oxides are occasionally used, such as MnO 2 in manganese thermite, Cr 2 O 3 in chromium thermite, SiO 2 (quartz) in silicon thermite, or copper(II ...
Mill scale on an anvil. Mill scale, often shortened to just scale, is the flaky surface of hot rolled steel, consisting of the mixed iron oxides iron(II) oxide (FeO, wüstite), iron(III) oxide (Fe 2 O 3, hematite), and iron(II,III) oxide (Fe 3 O 4, magnetite).
Electrochemically oxidized iron (rust) An iron oxide is a chemical compound composed of iron and oxygen. Several iron oxides are recognized. Often they are non-stoichiometric. Ferric oxyhydroxides are a related class of compounds, perhaps the best known of which is rust. [1]

Iron(III) oxide or ferric oxide is the inorganic compound with the formula Fe 2 O 3. It occurs in nature as the mineral hematite , which serves as the primary source of iron for the steel industry. It is also known as red iron oxide , especially when used in pigments .
About 1 in 20 meteorites consist of the unique iron-nickel minerals taenite (35–80% iron) and kamacite (90–95% iron). [37] Native iron is also rarely found in basalts that have formed from magmas that have come into contact with carbon-rich sedimentary rocks, which have reduced the oxygen fugacity sufficiently for iron to crystallize.
Green vitriol – a mineral; iron(II) sulfate heptahydrate. (or ferrous sulfate) Red vitriol - cobalt sulfate. [1] Sweet vitriol – diethyl ether. It could be made by mixing oil of vitriol with spirit of wine and heating it. [2] White vitriol – zinc sulfate, formed by lixiviating roasted zinc blende.
