Abstract
Structural and magnetic properties, methods of synthesis, and applications of seven iron(III) oxide polymorphs, including rare beta, epsilon, amorphous, and high-pressure forms, are reviewed. Thermal transformations resulting in the formation of iron oxides are classified according to different parameters, and their mechanisms are discussed. 57Fe Mossbauer spectroscopy is presented as a powerful tool for the identification, distinction, and characterization of individual polymorphs. The advantages of Mossbauer spectroscopy are demonstrated with two examples related to the study of the thermally induced solid-state reactions of Fe2(SO4)3.
