Chengliang Han, Jingsong Xie, Chonghai Deng, Difang Zhao
Porous hematite (a-Fe2O3) nanomaterials can be simply acquired from amorphous iron (III) hydroxide (Fe (OH) 3) in neutral solution by an evaporation method in an open quartz flask in a vacuum drying oven. Results show that the as-obtained a-Fe2O3 particles at 180°C for 2h or so are nearly spindle in shape. Each of a-Fe2O3 microspindles is made of many ultrafine a-Fe2O3 nanoparticles and results in a porous structure. The as-prepared porous a-Fe2O3 powders have higher surface area (~78m²/g) and can rapidly remove Cr (VI) ions in wastewater at room temperature. The model of the adsorption kinetic of Cr (VI) is best adapted to the pseudo second-order equation.
