  2. Chemical coloring of metals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_coloring_of_metals

    Solution of sodium polysulfide 2.5%, items must be submerged in the solution after color developing, wash, dry and wax or varnish colored object. [27] Brown for copper. Items are boiled in at least 3-day-old water solution of 12% copper sulfate, after color being developed, the material is washed, dried and waxed or varnished. [27] Black for iron

  3. Rust converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rust_converter

    Tannic acid chemically converts the reddish iron oxides into bluish-black ferric tannate, a more stable material. [2] The second active ingredient is an organic solvent such as 2-butoxyethanol (ethylene glycol monobutyl ether, trade name butyl cellosolve) that acts as a wetting agent and provides a protective primer layer in conjunction with an ...

  4. Ferrate (VI) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrate(VI)

    Ferrate(VI) salts are formed by oxidizing iron in an aqueous medium with strong oxidizing agents under alkaline conditions, or in the solid state by heating a mixture of iron filings and powdered potassium nitrate. [2] For example, ferrates are produced by heating iron(III) hydroxide with sodium hypochlorite in alkaline solution: [3] 2 Fe(OH) 3 ...

  5. Iron oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_oxide

    Iron oxide pigment. The brown color indicates that iron is at the oxidation state +3. Green and reddish brown stains on a limestone core sample, respectively corresponding to oxides/hydroxides of Fe 2+ and Fe 3+. Iron oxides feature as ferrous or ferric or both. They adopt octahedral or tetrahedral coordination geometry. Only a few oxides are ...

  6. Rust - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rust

    Rust is an iron oxide, a usually reddish-brown oxide formed by the reaction of iron and oxygen in the catalytic presence of water or air moisture.Rust consists of hydrous iron(III) oxides (Fe 2 O 3 ·nH 2 O) and iron(III) oxide-hydroxide (FeO(OH), Fe(OH) 3), and is typically associated with the corrosion of refined iron.

  7. Black oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_oxide

    These tanks contain, in order, alkaline detergent, water, sodium hydroxide at 140.5 °C (284.9 °F) (the blackening compound), and finally the sealant, which is usually oil. The NaOH (caustic soda) and elevated temperature cause Fe 3 O 4 (black oxide) to form on the surface of the metal instead of Fe 2 O 3 (red oxide; rust). While it is ...

  9. Fenton's reagent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fenton's_reagent

    Fenton's reagent is a solution of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2) and an iron catalyst (typically iron(II) sulfate, FeSO 4). [1] It is used to oxidize contaminants or waste water as part of an advanced oxidation process. Fenton's reagent can be used to destroy organic compounds such as trichloroethylene and tetrachloroethylene (perchloroethylene).
