I tried to heat (oxidise) the Fe powder at 500C and it got sintered (bonded) together. The bonding is so strong that its not easy to manually grind it to get back the iron oxide powder. XRD shows that all Fe transformed into Fe2O3 and Fe3O4. What is the reason of this bonding? and How to avoid this?
