Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 70 words
A modified acicular ferrimagnetic iron oxide which consists of a core of gamma-iron(III) oxide and a surrounding shell of gamma-iron(III) oxide modified by tin dioxide and carbon, and wherein the amount of tin dioxide is from 0.15 to 1.5% by weight and the amount of carbon is from 0.1 to 1% by weight, the percentages in each case being based on the total amount of the modified ferrimagnetic iron oxide.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 70 words
A modified acicular ferrimagnetic iron oxide which consists of a core of gamma-iron(III) oxide and a surrounding shell of gamma-iron(III) oxide modified by tin dioxide and carbon, and wherein the amount of tin dioxide is from 0.15 to 1.5% by weight and the amount of carbon is from 0.1 to 1% by weight, the percentages in each case being based on the total amount of the modified ferrimagnetic iron oxide.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 112 words
A process for the preparation of a modified acicular ferrimagnetic iron oxide as claimed in claim 1, comprising depositing tin dioxide and an organic compound on a synthetic lepidocrocite, or an alpha-iron (III) oxide obtained therefrom by dehydration, said organic compound being liquid at room temperature and decomposable in the presence of iron oxide at from 350° to 500° C., reducing the synthetic lepidocrocite, or alpha-iron (III) oxide obtained therefrom by dehydration containing deposited tin dioxide and said organic compound, at from 350° to 500° C., to magnetite and then oxidizing the magnetite by means of oxygen-containing gases at from 200° to 450° C. to give said modified acicular ferrimagnetic iron oxide.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 94 words
A process for the preparation of a modified acicular ferrimagnetic iron oxide as claimed in claim 1, comprising depositing an organo-tin compound which is decomposable at from 350° to 500° C. on a synthetic lepidocrocite, or an alpha-iron (III) oxide obtained therefrom by dehydration, reducing the synthetic lepidocrocite or an alpha-iron (III) oxide obtained therefrom by dehydration containing said deposited organo-tin compound, at from 350° to 500° C., to magnetite and then oxidizing the magnetite by means of oxygen-containing gases at from 200° to 450° C. to give said modified acicular ferrimagnetic iron oxide.
