ABSTRACTA range of transition metal bearing hollandite phases, formulated Ba1.2B1.2Ti6.8O16 (B2+ = Mg, Co, Ni, Zn, Mn) and Ba1.2B2.4Ti5.6O16 (B3+ = Al, Cr, Fe) were prepared using an alkoxide - nitrate route. X-ray powder diffraction demonstrated the synthesis of single phase materials for all compositions except B = Mn. The processing conditions required to produce > 95 % dense ceramics were determined for all compositions, except B = Mg for which the maximum density obtained was > 93 %. Analysis of transition metal K-edge XANES data confirmed the presence of the targeted transition metal oxidation state for all compositions except B = Mn, where the overall oxidation state was found to be Mn3+. The K-edge EXAFS data of Ba1.2B1.2Ti6.8O16 (B = Ni and Co) were successfully analysed using a crystallographic model of the hollandite structure, with six oxygen atoms present in the first co-ordination shell at a distance of ca. 2.02Å. Analysis of Fe K-edge EXAFS data of Ba1.2B2.4Ti5.4O16 revealed a reduced co-ordination shell of five oxygens at ca. 1.99Å.

Up until this point we have dealt with familiar intensive variables such as temperature, pressure, density, and molar thermodynamic properties (molar entropies, free energies, and so on). There exists another, equally important intensive variable that we have used implicitly, but have not yet discussed in sufficient detail—the oxidation state of a system. This involves concepts and applications so useful to Earth scientists that we devote a complete chapter to this single variable. Except for nuclear processes, most chemical behavior is determined by electron distributions and interactions. From this point of view, the oxidation state of an atom is among the most fundamental of all its properties. Most elements can exist in multiple valences with each state usually displaying quite different behavior from the others. As an example, consider the element sulfur.
