Red iron oxide powder
CAS:1317-61-9
Red iron oxide powder, with the chemical name ferric oxide and the chemical formula Fe₂O₃, is the most stable, common and widely used type among all iron oxides. It features extremely high chemical stability and physical durability, as well as excellent color performance. Its main application areas include building materials, coatings and paints, plastics and rubber, cosmetics, ceramics and glazes, etc.
Production and processing
Synthetic source: Through chemical synthesis (such as precipitation method, calcination method), products with higher purity, more uniform color and better performance can be produced to meet the demands of high-end industries. Yellow iron oxide (FeOOH) can be transformed into red Fe₂O₃ by calcination and dehydration at high temperatures.
What is red iron oxide powder used for?
From the red brick house you live in, the colorful floor tiles you walk on, to the car paint of the vehicles you drive, and even the lipstick you use, red iron oxide plays a crucial role in imparting color and ensuring stability for decades.
