Abstract

Iron oxide octahedral molecular sieve with 2x2 tunnel, designated' as FeOx-OMS (2x2) was successfully synthesized through hydrothermal method. FeOx-OMS (2x2) has high degree of purity and higher thermal stability than those of previously reported akaganeite-type materials. The X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) pattern shows peaks that are characteristic of pure akaganeite-system. Based on its TGA profile, it is thermally stable up to 255°C and at 402 °c, a new phase is formed which is a mixture of hematite-magnetite based on its XRD pattern. The SEM result shows a needle-like morphology that is characteristic of a tunnel structure. Another successful route in producing...kaganeite-type material is via transformation of a layered, lepidocrocite-type material precursor referredt o as L-FeOx. Although this tunnel material has a lower thermal stability, which is at 195°C, its XRD pattern shows also a relatively pure akaganeite- type material. It has also a needle-like morphology based on its scanning electron micrograph.
