Abstract

The influence of ball milling and subsequent calcination of a 2.5:1 molar mixture of α-Fe₂O₃ and Li₂CO₃ on the formation of lithium ferrites has been investigated. Premilling was found to considerably lower the temperature at which the lithium ferrites LiFeO₂ and LiFe₅O₈ are formed. A β-to-α-phase transition in LiFe₅O₈ was found to take place on cooling from ca. 1000°C depending on the milling history and cooling regime.
