We propose formation mechanisms of co-existence of α-Fe and iron oxides nanoparticles decorated on CNFs. The α-Fe nanoparticles are produced via oxidation-reduction mechanisms, which occur in liquid phase adsorption (LPA) assisted by ultrasonic energy, while α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles are thermally forme...
