Abstract

The catalytic activity of a colloidal catalyst based on iron(III) oxides in decomposition of H2O2 is studied. The catalyst is obtained by hydrolysis followed by peptization of FeCl3 · 6H2O salt in water in the presence of 1% ethanol. The structure, composition, and size of colloidal particles of the catalyst are studied by the methods of Mössbauer spectroscopy, X-ray fluorescence, X-ray diffraction, and transmission electron microscopy. The obtained catalyst is based on α-Fe2O3 crystals with an admixture of other crystalline structures of iron oxides and carbon-containing compounds. The activity of the catalyst with respect to H2O2 decomposition undergoes nonlinear and nonmonotonic variations and its particle size enlarges beginning from 1 to 3 nm with increasing initial concentration of FeCl3 · 6H2O. The catalyst obtained under optimal conditions exhibits high activity corresponding to the most efficient agents of H2O2 decomposition.
