The effect of phosphonate-based growth modifiers on the morphology of hematite nanoparticles formed via acid hydrolysis of ferric chloride solutions

The effect of organic phosphonate-based additives on a-Fe2O3 (hematite) crystallization via the forced hydrolysis of ferric chloride solutions has been studied using a range of additives containing 2, 3 or 4 pendant phosphonate groups. The hydrolysis reactions were carried out at pH 1.1 with an iron...
