Porous magnesium hydroxide nanoplates were synthesized directly from natural brucite in the presence of magnesium lactate through a simple hydrothermal process. Magnesium lactate may play a role of conveyer in transporting hydroxy groups from brucite to Mg(OH)2 nanoplates.
Graphical abstractPorous magnesium hydroxide nanoplates were synthesized directly from commercial bulk magnesium hydroxide in the presence of magnesium lactate through a simple hydrothermal process.Figure optionsDownload full-size imageDownload as PowerPoint slideHighlights► Mesoporous magnesium hydroxide was synthesized from natural brucite. ► Magnesium lactate was used as a transformation agent of natural brucite. ► Reduce production cost and facilitate commercialization of mesoporous Mg(OH)2.
