A new iron-phosphate compound (Fe7P11O38) obtained by pyrophosphate stoichiometric glass devitrification
Abstract Iron phosphates are a wide group of compounds that possess versatile applications. Their properties are strongly dependent on the role and position of iron in their structure. Iron, because of its chemical character, is able to easily change its redox state and accommodate different chemica...
