Hydrothermal formation and characterization of magnesium hydroxide chloride hydrate nanowires

Synthesis and structural analysis of mesoporous magnesium hydroxide nanoparticles as efficient catalyst

“…Yu et al have reported the synthesis of porous Mg(OH) 2 nanoplates by a hydrothermal method . Fan et al have reported the synthesis of nanowires of Mg(OH) 2 by the solvothermal approach . Zhao et al have reported the synthesis and antibacterial activity of irregular Mg(OH) 2 nanoplatelets .…”

Synthesis of Basic Magnesium Chloride Whisker in MgO-HCl-H2O System at Room Temperature

“…6 shows the SEM images of the samples, the results show that the whisker shape maintained still very well in the Mg(OH)2. The fact of the basic magnesium chloride wkiskers can be transformed into Mg(OH)2 whiskers by base NaOH treatment provided an evidence of that the Cl anions were rather than the structure of the free in the basic magnesium chloride wkiskers 2,5,8 .…”

“…The basic magnesium chloride whiskers with a general formula of xMg(OH) 2 •yMgCl 2 •zH 2 O (x = 2,3,5,9; y = 1; z = 1,2,3…..) 2,3 were discovered and applied in cement 4 . The basic magnesium chloride whiskers could generally be synthesized in a typical method by using magnesium oxide powder and magnesium chloride solution as raw materials [5][6][7][8] . It could also be synthesized by using magnesium chloride solution and NH 3 •H 2 O, Ca(OH) 2 , NaOH, CaO, as raw materials 2,9,10 .…”

“…the phase form 318 with the formula 3Mg(OH) 2 •MgCl 2 •8H 2 O were one of the most important and fundamental phase form on which being extensive investigated 11 . A number of workers indicated that the crystal structure of the phase form318 in system MgO-MgCl 2 -H 2 O were a condensation of the MgO 6 octahedra with respect to the Mg(OH) 2 content and intercalated with chloride atoms/ions and water molecules 5,11 . Mg(OH) 2 nanotubes can be synthesized by using Mg 10 (OH) 18 Cl 2 •5H 2 O nanowires as precursors and rod-like Mg(OH) 2 prepared by basic magnesium chloride precursor 12 .…”

Synthesis and application of magnesium oxide nanospheres with high surface area

“…Some studies have revealed that the nano-scaled titanium oxides are favorable starting materials for the sintering of ceramics [13,14]. Magnesium oxide in the form of nanorods, nanowires, nanotubes, and nanoparticles has been obtained by various methods [15][16][17]. In particularly, the polyol-mediated thermolysis process, in which ethylene glycol (EG) and polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) are combined, has been used to increase the reducing ability and boiling point of solutions, and has been reported to synthesize MgO with various nano-structures [18,19].…”
