Iron Oxide commonly exists in the stable α-Fe₂O₃ (hematite) phase, which has a corundum-type crystal structure. The γ-Fe₂O₃ (maghemite) phase has a cubic crystal structure and exhibits magnetic properties.
Pigments: Fe₂O₃ is widely used as an inorganic pigment because of its characteristic reddish-brown colour, chemical stability, and good resistance to heat and environmental conditions. It can be used in coatings, ceramics, construction materials, and other pigment applications.
Magnetic Materials: γ-Fe₂O₃ (maghemite) has magnetic properties and can be used in the production of magnetic recording materials, including magnetic tapes and disks. It is also used in the development of magnetic functional materials and information-storage technologies.
Catalysts: Iron Oxide can act as a catalyst or catalyst component in various chemical reactions, including catalytic oxidation and water-gas shift reactions. Its surface properties and chemical stability make it useful in selected industrial and research applications.
Electronic Materials: Iron Oxide is used in the preparation and development of magnetic films, semiconductor-related materials, and other functional electronic materials. Its magnetic and electronic properties can be utilized in applications such as magnetic sensors and other electronic devices.
Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Applications: Iron oxide nanoparticles and specially prepared iron oxide materials can be used in drug-delivery systems, biosensing, and contrast-agent research. Their physicochemical and magnetic properties make them useful for selected biomedical applications.
Each batch of our products starts with careful selection of raw materials and undergoes controlled production processes with strict parameter control and monitoring at each stage. Key indicators such as particle size distribution, chemical purity, and impurity content are tested using high-precision analytical equipment to ensure consistent quality and batch-to-batch reliability.
Packaging: Iron Oxide powder is supplied in double vacuum-sealed bags or bottles and cartons to help protect the material from moisture and contamination during transportation and storage.
Storage: Store Iron Oxide powder in a dry, well-ventilated environment in a tightly sealed container. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture and contact with strong reducing agents. Keep the powder away from ignition sources and excessive heat to maintain its physical and chemical stability.

VI HALBLEITERMATERIAL GmbH (VIMATERIAL) employs a stringent quality assurance system to ensure the reliability of our product quality. Strict quality control is implemented throughout the entire production chain, and for defective products, we strictly enforce the principle of rework and redo. Each batch is released only after passing detailed specification tests.
Every batch of our materials is independently tested, and, if necessary, we send samples to certified companies for testing. We provide these documents and analysis certificates with the shipment to certify that our products meet the required standards.
