Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for producing iron oxide which overcomes the problems of the methods of prior arts. SOLUTION: Highly pure iron oxides are prepared by reaction of metallic iron, in the form of microspheroidal particles or of scraps or cuttings, with an agitated aqueous solution of a mono- or poly-carboxylic acid with a pKa of 0.5 to 6 relative to the first carboxyl and capable of decomposing, by heating in air at 200 to 350°C, to carbon dioxide and water, using 0.03 to 1.5 moles of acid per g-atoms of iron, a water/iron weight ratio of 1 to 20, and by oxidation of the ferrous carboxylate to ferric salt, with an agent selected from oxygen, mixtures containing oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, organic peroxides and hydroperoxides.
