Title: What acid treatment is used to change Fe to a non magnetic state?
Post by: jackwade on August 18, 2010, 09:08:14 PM

  I read an article stating that in Japan they were able to change Fe to a form of Cu that was non magnetic but could not be turned into a copper ingot.  It was dissolving Fe in acid and was a yellow, brown powder that precipitated out of the acid solution.  Is anyone aware of this process? 
  What is the best process for dissolving Fe in an acid solution?
