Summary
-
1.
The system Bi2O3-Fe2O3 was studied by the method of differential thermal analysis and we have given the phase diagram of the system.
-
2.
The curve of the liquidus system consists of six crystallization branches: Fe2O3, Bi2Fe4O9, α- and β-BiFeO3, a compound of the assumed composition 20Bi2O3·Fe2O3, and Bi2O3.
-
3.
BiFeO3 has a reversible transformation at 825°; this ferrite melts incongruently at 930°.
-
4.
Bi2Fe4O9 also melts incongruently at 960°.
-
5.
At 785° there crystallizes a eutectic mixture of the low temperature form of BiFeO3 and the compound of supposed composition Bi40Fe2O63.
