Large Scale Production of MgO Nanostructures and their Possible Applications

Article Preview

Abstract:

The unique properties of nanomaterials have motivated the researchers to develop the simpler and inexpensive techniques to produce nanostructures of technologically important materials. Several oxide nanostructures are produced to have tremendous applications in the future and among them, magnesium oxide (MgO) is an exceptionally important material for use in catalysis, toxic waste remediation, as an additive in refractory, paint and superconducting products Fang et a. (2006).
