Abstract Fine particles of the amorphous Cr2O3-Fe2O2 solid solutions were prepared by dehydration of coprecipitated hydroxides and their crystallization behavior was studied by differential thermal analysis and X-ray diffraction. The peak temperature for crystallization attained a maximum at a composition near Fe2O3 content of about 60 mol % and the activation energy for crystallization attained a minimum at a composition near Fe2O3 content of about 50 mol % in this quasibinary system. Phase separation occurred in a range of Fe2O3 content from about 35 to 80 mol % in the corundum-type solid solutions heat treated at 600 °C for 2 h. Crystallization behavior was discussed briefly related with phase separation and diffusion in fine particles.
