ABSTRACT:
This invention provides a method of producing goethite particles comprising the steps of
a) reacting, in aqueous solution, less than a stoichiometric amount of an alkali compound with an iron (II) salt to form a precipitated complex intermediate,
b) oxidizing iron (II) in the complex intermediate to iron (III) at an average rate less than 10 g iron(III)/l/hr to form goethite seed particles until 20 to 70% of iron (II) in the precipitated complex intermediate has been converted to iron (III), and
c) after 20 to 70% of iron (II) in the precipitated complex intermediate has been convened to iron (III), increasing the average oxidation rate to greater than 10 g iron(III)/l/hr.
