Abstract

The powdered bentonite/iron oxide composite material was synthesized by chemical co-precipitation. The grain size composition, morphology, crystal structure, porosity, and thermal stability of the obtained powder were investigated. It was established that iron oxide exists in the composite as the maghemite/magnetite solid solution with the formula Fe2.950O4. An increase in the viability of the bacterium Escherichia coli M-17 after culturing in the nutrient medium in the presence of the synthesized bentonite/iron oxide powder was found.
