Influence of calcination parameters on physicochemical and structural properties of co-precipitated magnesium silicate

Abstract

Physicochemical properties of different oxide systems depend mostly on the method of their preparation and classification, so the main aim of the study was to obtain the MgO·SiO2 hybrid in an aqueous solution and its calcination under assumed conditions. Research scope included evaluation of the effect of the basic parameters of the calcination process (time and temperature) on the structural properties of the final materials. Products obtained by the proposed method were thoroughly characterized. The chemical composition, crystalline structure, morphology and nature of the dispersion as well as parameters of the porous structure were established. The results of research in a decisive manner confirmed the possibility of designing the properties of inorganic oxide systems such as MgO·SiO2, which will definitively scheduled into potential directions for their use
