Spinel-type Li0.64Fe2.15Ge0.21O4, lithium diiron(III) germanium tetraoxide, has been formed as a by-product during flux growth of an Li–Fe–Ge pyroxene-type material. In the title compound, lithium is ordered on the octahedralBsites, while Ge4+orders onto the tetrahedralAsites, and iron distributes over both the octahedral and tetrahedral sites, and is in the trivalent state as determined from Mössbauer spectroscopy. The oxygen parameteruis 0.2543; thus, the spinel is close to having an ideal cubic closed packing of the O atoms. The title spinel is compared with other Li- and Ge-containing spinels.

Ni(II)- and Co(II)-bearing ferrites with different levels of metal substitution have been studied for CO2 decomposition. Ni2+ and Co2+ have been substituted for Fe2+ or Fe3+ in magnetite with the spinel type of crystal structure up to 14% and 26% for the mole ratio of Ni2+ and Co2+ to the total Fe contents, respectively. The metal substitution was corroborated by Mössbauer spectroscopy and XRD studies. They were activated in a flow of H2 gas to form oxygen-deficient ferrites with the spinel structure retained. The oxygen-deficient M(II)-bearing ferrites have been found to show high reactivity toward CO2 decomposition to carbon at 300 °C. The reactivity increased with the level of metal substitution and activation. The oxygens of CO2 were incorporated into the spinel structure and carbon was deposited on the surface of the ferrites. The deposited carbon was visible on dissolution of the ferrites used. The rate of decomposition on H2-activated Ni(II)-bearing ferrite with the mole ratio of 14% was 30 times as high as that of H2-activated magnetite.

Abstract The aim of the study was to characterize the 0.8CaZrO3-0.2CaFe2O4 composite structure with particular emphasis on the role and position of iron in the function of sintering temperature. The paper presents the results of 57Fe Mössbauer effect at room temperature. It was found that the increase of sintering temperature causes an increase in the amount of incorporated iron ions in the CaZrO3-crystal structure. Based on Mössbauer spectroscopy analysis, it was found that three different environments of Fe3+ ions were observed in the obtained materials. Two of them corresponded to CaFe2O4 phase and one was associated with the substitution of Zr4+ by Fe3+ in the CaZrO3 structure.
