Synthesis of a magnetoactive compound by the interaction of iron(II) sulfate with potassium chromate

Resumo

A study was made of the effect of synthesis conditions on the properties of a magnetoactive compound obtained by the interaction of iron(II) sulfate with potassium chromate. It was found that, in the formation of the magnetoactive compound, chromium is almost completely coprecipitates with the solid phase. To produce the magnetoactive compound with high relative magnetic susceptibility, it is necessary to precipitate it from the initial solution in no less than 10 min after its preparation at a K₂CrO₄: FeSO₄ molar ratio of 0.16–0.18.
