Abstract

The thermal decomposition of iron(III) citrate pentahydrate, Fe(C6H5O7) · 5 H2O, has been investigated at different temperatures in air using Mossbauer spectroscopy, nonisothermal techniques (DTA-TG) and X-ray diffraction. The reduction of iron(III) to iron(II) takes place at 553 K. At higher temperature the formation of α-Fe2O3 and γ-Fe2O3 as the ultimate thermal decomposition products has been confirmed.
