Solution phase synthesis of magnesium hydroxide sulfate hydrate nanoribbons

摘要

Magnesium hydroxide sulfate hydrate nanoribbons have been synthesized by a solution-phase approach, which is based on the treatment of freshly precipitated magnesium hydroxide in an alcohol-water solution containing high concentrations of magnesium sulfate. These nanoribbons had typical lengths up to the micrometre range, widths of 60-300 nm, and thicknesses of 16-50 nm.
