Barium ferrite these species include BaFeO, BaFeO, and BaFeO. A one-step hydrothermal process can be used to form crystals of barium ferrite, by mixing barium chloride, ferrous chloride, potassium nitrate, and sodium hydroxide with a hydroxide to chloride concentration ratio of 2:1. Nanoparticles are prepared from ferric nitrate, barium chloride, sodium citrate, and sodium hydroxide. The typical preparation, however, is by calcining barium carbonate with iron(III) oxide: Barium ferrite has been considered for long term data storage. The material has proven to be resistant to a number of different environmental stresses, including humidity and corrosion. Because ferrites are already oxidized it can
Metallic dragon and adamantine dragons for brass and bronze, and released the latter dragons in a later book alongside cobalt, mercury, mithral, orium, and steel dragons. The classification of "metallic dragons" was used in the "Advanced Dungeons & Dragons" second edition "Monstrous Manual" (1993), although the gold(en) dragon first appeared in the original "Dungeons & Dragons" "white box" set (1974) and the other dragons comprising the category had been in print since the first edition "Monster Manual" (1977). The term was continued in use in the third edition and fourth edition "Monster Manual". Although weaker than many other varieties of dragonkind, brass
