Where mill scale Was used directly Without the use of costly
scale. This Work describes that red, broWn and black iron
oxide can be obtained. HoWever, many industrial practical
dif?culties are involved, such as the controllability of pro
cess for colour consistency. Also, the process reaction veloc
ity to obtain iron oxide pigments may not be practical
because direct oxidation of mill scale is sloW. The control of
oxidation process in the formation of red and black oxide
Was not fully disclosed.
[0009] The current invention relates to a method of manu
facturing iron oxide pigments from mill scale. The mill scale
is mixed With alien iron oxide and the resultant mixture is
heated to a temperature of 2000 C. to 9000 C. in an oxidiZing
black, broWn or red. The alien iron oxide used and the iron
[0003]
only increase the cost of raW material but the equipment and
consumables are relatively expensive. This leads to high
industry.

contact surface betWeen mill scale and iron oxide, thus the
lesser amount of alien iron oxide needed and the shorter the
