The project focuses on the synthesis of selected compounds to investigate iron-specific, traceable properties in intermetallic and oxidized phases. In particular, the investigation of reactivity concerning structural defects with a bearing on catalytic processes are at the center of these research efforts. In-depth characterization methods include in situ XRD, LT-Mössbauer spectroscopy, thermal analysis, magnetization and specific heat measurements, and are central to the proposed work packages.
