Abstract:
Yellow iron oxide hydroxide particles comprising:iron oxide hydroxide particle as a core, andcomposite oxide hydroxide of Fe and Al deposited on surface of said iron oxide hydroxide particle as a core wherein the amount of Al in said composite oxide hydroxide is 0.1 to 10% by weight, calculated as Al, based on the weight of said iron oxide hydroxide as a core, the amount of Fe in said composite oxide hydroxide is 0.1 to 50% by weight, calculated as Fe, based on the weight of said iron oxide hydroxide particle as a core, and the ratio of Al to Fe in said composite oxide hydroxide is 0.05:1 to 2:1, calculated as Al and Fe atoms,said yellow iron oxide hydroxide particles having an average major axis diameter of 0.1 to 1.0 .mu.m, an average minor axis diameter of 0.02 to 0.10 .mu.m, an aspect ratio (major axis diameter/minor axis diameter) of 2 to 20, a BET specific surface area of 10 to 180 m.sup.2 /g and a heat-resistance temperature of not less than 255.degree.
