Yellow Iron Oxide Description

Iron yellow oxide-hydroxide occurs naturally as four minerals, the polymorphs denoted by the Greek letters α, β, γ and δ: Goethite, α-FeO(OH), has been used as a pigment since prehistoric times.

Akaganéite is the β polymorph, formed by weathering and noted for its presence in some meteorhe lunar surface. The γ polymorph lepidocrocite is commonly encountered as rust on the inside of steel water pipes and tanks. Feroxyhyte (δ) is formed under the high pressure conditions of sea and ocean floors, being thermodynamically unstable with respect to the α polymorph (goethite) at surface conditions. It also occurs as siderogel - a colloid - and limonite, which is a commonly found mixture of mainly goethite, lepidocrocite, quartz and clay minerals. Goethite and lepidocrocite, both crystallizing in orthorhombic system, are the most common forms of iron(III) oxide-hydroxide and the most important mineral carriers of iron in soils. The mineralferrihydrite, also a soil constituent, is a related compound.     
APPLICATIONS
Yellow iron oxide (CAS 51274-00-1) is used as a pigment, e.g. Pigment Yellow 42 or C.I. 77492. Pigment Yellow 42 is Food and Drug Administration(FDA) approved for use in cosmetics and is used in some tattoo inks. Solid material color ranges from yellow through dark-brown to black. Iron oxide-hydroxide is also used in aquarium water treatment as a phosphate binder. Recently, two forms of Iron oxide-hydroxides nanoparticles were identified as very good adsorbents for lead removal from aquatic media.
