Crystallographic representation of Patterson densities of polymorphs α-Fe2O3

Abstract

The Patterson densities in terms of model electron densities and model nuclear densities have been performed on α-phase of Fe2O3. A theoretical work is carried out using VESTA software on the crystallographic visualization of Patterson densities of α-Fe2O3. The analyzed result mainly attributes to the packing fraction of α-Fe2O3 and is promising for the use of α-phase of Fe2O3 as ultraviolet (UV) blocking agent in paints.
