Research Abstract |
Anisotropic properties of textured hematite bulk ceramics prepared by a magnetic field-assisted colloidal processing were investigated. Aqueous suspension of goethite was consolidated in a 2-6.5 T strong magnetic field to fabricate oriented goethite green bodies, then they were heated in air at 1200 degree C to obtain dense, textured hematite bulk ceramics. During the process, the a,b-axes of goethite was inherited to the c-axis of hematite via a topotactic phase transformation. The textured hematite exhibited anisotropic magnetic and mechanical properties; however, no obvious anisotropic electric and photoelectrochemical properties.
