Obtaining of hematite from industrial steel waste using dry-milling and high temperature

In this work, the mill scale (MS) of hot rolling, a waste of steel processing, composed by a complex mixture of iron oxides, is transformed in a nanocrystalline powder containing only the hematite (α-Fe2O3) phase. For that, the MS was dry-milled using a high-energy ball mill for 30 min and heat-trea...
