  2. Mill scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mill_scale

    Mill scale is a complex oxide that contains around 70% iron with traces of nonferrous metals and alkaline compounds. Reduced iron powder may be obtained by conversion of mill scale into a single highest oxide i.e. hematite (Fe 2 O 3) followed by reduction with hydrogen.

  3. Thermite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermite

    A thermite mixture using iron(III) oxide. Thermite (/ ˈ θ ɜːr m aɪ t /) [1] is a pyrotechnic composition of metal powder and metal oxide. When ignited by heat or chemical reaction, thermite undergoes an exothermic reduction-oxidation (redox) reaction. Most varieties are not explosive, but can create brief bursts of heat and high ...

  4. Iron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron

    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.

  7. Iron compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_compounds

    Iron shows the characteristic chemical properties of the transition metals, namely the ability to form variable oxidation states differing by steps of one and a very large coordination and organometallic chemistry: indeed, it was the discovery of an iron compound, ferrocene, that revolutionalized the latter field in the 1950s. [1] Iron is ...

  8. Sodium bis (2-methoxyethoxy)aluminium hydride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_bis(2-methoxyethoxy...

    Sodium bis(2-methoxyethoxy)aluminium hydride (SMEAH; [1] trade names Red-Al, Synhydrid, Vitride) is a hydride reductant with the formula NaAlH 2 (OCH 2 CH 2 OCH 3) 2. The trade name Red-Al refers to its being a reducing aluminium compound. It is used predominantly as a reducing agent in organic synthesis.
