ABSTRACT
Iron is an abundant and non-toxic element that holds great potential as energy carrier for large-scale and long-term energy storage. While from a general viewpoint iron oxidation is well-known, the detailed kinetics of oxidation for micrometer sized particles are missing, but required to enable large-scale utilization for energy production. In this work, iron particles are subjected to temperature-programmed oxidation. By dilution with boron nitride a sintering of the particles is prevented enabling to follow single particle effects. The mass fractions of iron and its oxides are determined for different oxidation times using Mössbauer spectroscopy. On the basis of the extracted phase compositions obtained at different times and temperatures (600-700 °C), it can be concluded that also for particles the oxidation follows a parabolic rate law. The parabolic rate constants are determined in this transition region. Knowledge of the particle size distribution and its consideration in modeling the oxidation kinetics of iron powder has proven to be crucial.
