We provide an experimental proof that the so-called ‘paramagnetic phase’ seen in Fe—Ni-bearing meteorites has a very different electronic structure from that of all other known Fe—Ni minerals, in support of the recent proposal that it is a low moment phase and a new meteoritic mineral. 57Fe Mössbauer isomer shift measurements, corrected for second-order Doppler shifts, give local electronic den...

The interdiffusion coefficients in bcc ( ) and fcc ( ) Fe-Ni alloys below their Curie temperatures have been calculated based on the magnetic contribution to the free energy for interdiffusion. The free energy for interdiffusion due to magnetic ordering in bcc Fe-Ni alloys is positive. The calculated interdiffusion coefficients in bcc Fe-Ni alloys fit the experimental data quite well. In fcc Fe...

Molecularly well-defined Ni sites at heterogeneous interfaces were derived from the incorporation of Ni2+ ions into heteroatom-doped graphene. The molecular Ni sites on graphene were redox-active. However, they showed poor activity toward oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in KOH aqueous solution. We demonstrated for the first time that the presence of Fe3+ ions in the solution could bond at the v...

The reaction of Fe(CO)(2)(NO)(2) and Ni(N(2)S(2)) (N(2)S(2) = N,N'-Bis(2-mercaptoethyl)-1,4-diazacycloheptane) by a single CO replacement yields [Ni(N(2)S(2))]Fe(NO)(2)(CO), while an excess of Fe(CO)(2)(NO)(2) leads to triply bridging thiolate sulphurs in a cluster of core composition Ni(2)S(4)Fe(3), lacking one Fe(NO)(2) unit to complete the adamantane-like structure. This structural type was ...

In order to investigate the efficiency of sulfate green rust (GR2) to remove Ni from solution, GR2 samples were synthesized under controlled laboratory conditions. Some GR2 samples were synthesized from Fe(II) and Fe(III) sulfate salts by precipitation. Other samples were prepared by coprecipitation, of Ni(II), Fe(II) and Fe(III) sulfate salts, i.e., in the presence of Ni. In another sample, Ni...
