Abstract
Abstract A process for the manufacture of ferromagnetic chromium dioxide modified with foreign elements, by reacting oxides of trivalent and hexavalent chromium under superatmospheric pressure at an elevated temperature in the presence of water and of antimony(III) oxide as modifier, with or without other modifiers in an amount not exceeding 15% by weight, wherein the antimony(III) oxide employed as modifier is, to the extent of more than one-third, present as the senarmontite cubic modification, has a specific surface area, measured by the BET method, of from 1.5 to 15 m 2 /g, and is added in a total amount of up to 0.5% by weight, based on the resulting chromium dioxide.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
118 words
A process for the manufacture of ferromagnetic chromium dioxide by reacting oxides of trivalent and hexavalent chromium under a pressure of from 100 to 700 bar at a temperature from 200°-600° C. in the presence of water and of antimony(III) oxide as modifier, with or without other modifiers in an amount not exceeding 15% by weight, wherein the antimony(III) oxide employed as modifier is, to the extent of more than one-third of the antimony(III) oxide, present as the senarmontite cubic modification, has a specific surface area, measured by the BET method, of from 2.5 to 15 m 2 /g, and is added in an amount of from 0.1 to 0.5% by weight, based on the resulting chromium dioxide.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
118 words
A process for the manufacture of ferromagnetic chromium dioxide by reacting oxides of trivalent and hexavalent chromium under a pressure of from 100 to 700 bar at a temperature from 200°-600° C. in the presence of water and of antimony(III) oxide as modifier, with or without other modifiers in an amount not exceeding 15% by weight, wherein the antimony(III) oxide employed as modifier is, to the extent of more than one-third of the antimony(III) oxide, present as the senarmontite cubic modification, has a specific surface area, measured by the BET method, of from 2.5 to 15 m 2 /g, and is added in an amount of from 0.1 to 0.5% by weight, based on the resulting chromium dioxide.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
