Scientists at University College London (UCL) analyzed grains of iron oxide in 32 clay bricks from ancient Mesopotamia to ...

It’s the reaction between aluminium metal and iron oxide, which results in aluminium oxide and metallic iron. It’s hot enough that the iron is produced as a liquid, which means it’s most ...

Chemists from the CNRS have studied the properties and efficacy of iron oxide nanoparticles as potential agents for magnetic hyperthermia. This promising cancer treatment technique involves locally ...

So they needed a cheap way to protect the barns' wood. They mixed skimmed milk, lime, and red iron oxide to make a red, plastic-like coating. The coating protected the wood and kept barns warmer ...

During this reaction, the oxygen and water react with iron to form flakes of iron oxide hydrate on the metal surface.

Iron oxide, aluminum, and a catalyst are placed in a flowerpot. The reaction is extremely exothermic resulting in molten iron and aluminum dripping into sand below the flowerpot. The demonstration ...

Steelmaking is normally a dirty business. Iron oxide ore is fed into coal-fired blast furnaces, which remove the oxygen and produce iron that can be strengthened into steel. For each ton of steel ...
