Well-crystallized hematite was suspended in water and treated at room-temperature (RT) with sodium borohydride. The product of the reaction is a highly magnetic black powder, which is stable at RT. The NaBH4 treatment converts about half of the hematite to an amorphous Fe–B alloy and to a small fraction of sub-micron sized, amorphous metallic-Fe nodules. Heating at 400°C of this composite has resulted...
