Using X‐ray, infrared, and electron paramagnetic resonance methods, the reactivity of ZnO+ x Mn 2 O 3 systems during heat treatment was studied. Results showed that the solubility of manganese (Mn) in zinc oxide (ZnO) is lower than 3% and that reaction diffusion occurs. Reaction processes that take place in this system promote disintegration of Mn 2 O 3 particles into microfragments and causes them to move along the surface of the ZnO particles (solid‐state reactive wetting process).
