Iron Powder is a finely divided form of elemental iron used in various industrial, chemical, and laboratory applications.

🏭⚗️ Production
Iron powder is produced by methods such as atomization, reduction of iron oxides, or electrolysis. The iron particles are collected, classified by size, and purified to remove impurities before packaging and storage in airtight containers to prevent oxidation.

🔬 Properties
Iron powder appears as a gray to black fine powder with magnetic properties. It has high surface area, good reactivity, and is prone to oxidation when exposed to air and moisture. The powder is insoluble in water but reactive under certain chemical conditions.

🧪 Applications
Iron powder is widely used in metallurgy for powder metallurgy processes, magnetic materials, chemical reactions as a reducing agent, in catalysts, and in pharmaceuticals as a dietary iron supplement. It is also employed in the production of magnetic inks and coatings.

⚠️ Safety
Handle with care; iron powder is combustible in fine particulate form and can pose a dust explosion hazard. Use gloves, eye protection, and respiratory protection in dusty environments. Keep away from ignition sources and store in a cool, dry place. Dispose of waste according to local chemical safety regulations.
