Iron hydroxide nitrides

According to both the NFPA Guide and Bretherick (Refs 5 13), sulfuric acid causes explosions and/or fires when in intimate contact with a large number (over 70) of materials including acetic anhydride, acet and nitric acid, acrolein, alcohols, alcohols and hydrogen peroxide, anun hydroxide, aniline, bromine and metals, carbides, chlorates, cyclopentadiene, ethylene glycol, various hydrocarbons, hydrochloric acid, iron, mercuric nitride, powdered metals, perchlorates, picrates, pyridine, Na carbonate, steel, sucrose, vinyl acetate, and w.

The Badische AniKn- und Soda-Fabrik prepared a nitride of undetermined composition by heating a mixture of silica and carbon in an atm. of nitrogen. The reaction proceeds at a relatively low temp, if a hydroxide or salt of a metal be added. The product contains silicon nitride mixed with the nitride of the metal. The Badische Anilin- und Soda-Fabrik also removed many of the impurities—iron, carbon, silicates, carbides, silicides, and phosphides—by treatment with acids or mild oxidizing agents which do not affect the silicon nitride. A. S. Larsen and O. J. Storm prepared the nitride by the action of nitrogen on molten silicides—e.g. ferrosilicon.
