Iron disilicide FeSi2 powder overview
The chemical form of iron disilicide is FeSi2, which is an intermetallic compound, a kind of iron silicide, which exists as a rare mineral in nature. Forms rhombohedral crystals (β phase) at room temperature, and transforms into tetragonal α phase when heated to 970 °C. Iron disilicide is gray powder, odorless, square, and insoluble in water. Iron disilicide (FeSi2) is a semiconductor material with a direct band gap (0.85-0.87 eV), with high optical absorption coefficient, high Seebeck coefficient, high operating temperature and high oxidation resistance.
Physical and chemical properties of iron disilicide
Iron disilicide is an inorganic silicon compound, the molecular formula is FeSi₂, the molecular weight is 119.975, gray powder, odorless, tetragonal. Chemicalbook can be used as catalyst for catalytic oxidation and methanation of hydrogen, specifically as deoxidizer for welding flux, humidity sensor, FeSi₂ thermocouple, and thermoelectric solar cell.
Production method of iron disilicide
Mix iron powder and silicon powder with a molar ratio of 1:2, and eutectic or sinter in vacuum or inert atmosphere
