    Abstract: Prod. having high coercive force is produced by pptg. Co(OH)2 from a Co(II) salt soln. with ammonia onto goethite crystallised from an alkaline soln. The prod. is subjected to reduction into magnetite. Subsequently the magnetite is oxidised with O2 at 200-400 degrees C to produce cobalt doped gamma-Fe2O3. Process is improved by pretreating the surface of goethite (before the introduction of the Co(II) salt) with an acid having pK 4.8; adjusting pH to 3-7 and maintaining the surface acidity within this range to the end of the redn. process. gamma-Fe2O3 suitable for magnetic recording is produced. Its coercive force is increased (compared with the known material) by the increased quantity of the cobalt dopant. The above process permits an increase in the cobalt doping without impairing the thermal stability and the toughness of the product. The reduction stage can be carried out at temps. as low as 250-290 degrees C.

    Abstract: Acicular gamma-iron(III) oxide is manufactured by reacting an iron(II) salt solution with an aqueous solution of an alkali metal hydroxide and oxidizing the resulting suspension of iron(II) hydroxide in three stages. In a first stage, at most from 0.1 to 4% by weight of the amount of iron(II) hydroxide originally present is oxidized in the course of from 0.1 to 4 hours, in a second stage from 10 to 25% by weight of the said original amount are oxidized in the course of from 1.5 to 6 hours and in a third stage the remaining amount is oxidized. After the oxidation, the goethite formed is reduced to magnetite and the latter is then oxidized to acicular gamma-iron(III) oxide.

    Abstract: Acicular gamma -iron(III) oxide is manufactured by reacting an iron(II) salt solution with aqueous solutions of alkali metal hydroxides and oxidizing the resulting suspension of iron(II) hyroxides in 3 stages. In the first stage not more than 8 percent by weight of the iron(II) hydroxide originally present is oxidized over a period of 0.5 to 4 hours, in the second stage from 25 to 55 percent by weight over a period of 1.5 to 6 hours and the remainder thereof in a third stage. Following this oxidation, the goethite formed is reduced to magnetite, which is then oxidized to acicular gamma -iron(III) oxide.
