Abstract

The systematic study of the reduction of pure wustites (FeO) between 600 and 1100°C in H2/H2O gas mixtures has revealed a number of important morphological changes. It has been shown that dense wustite can decompose to form a highly porous wustite before iron nucleation takes place. The product morphologies of iron formed on the wustite on reduction have been classified into three types, (a) porous iron, (b) porous wustite covered by dense iron, and (c) dense wustite covered by dense iron.
