Effect of water to surfactant ratio (R) on the particle size of MgAl2O4 nanoparticle prepared via reverse micelle process

Influence of nano boehmite on solid state reaction of alumina and magnesia

“…Over the last few decades, numerous techniques have been used to prepare high purity magnesium aluminate spinel powder including solid-state synthesis hydrothermal synthesis [14], co-precipitation [15][16][17], microemulsion technique [18], microwave-assisted combustion processing [19], plasma spray decomposition [20,21], sol-gel of double or semi-alkoxides [22][23][24], the citrate-nitrate route [25,26], organic gel-assisted citrate process [27], aerosol method [28], freeze drying [29], decomposition of organometallic compounds [30][31][32][33], mechaniochemical synthesis [34,35], mechanical activation [1] and others [36][37][38]. Among them solid-state synthesis is the most common rout to produce commercial MA spinel.…”

Thermal stability and microstructure characterization of MgAl2O4 nanoparticles synthesized by reverse microemulsion method

“…Recently, Christy et al 16 synthesized MgAl 2 O 4 nanoparticles using normal microemulsion method and adjusted the metal cation concentration to control nanoparticles size. Chandradass et al 17 prepared MgAl 2 O 4 nanoparticles via reverse microemulsion process and studied the influence of water to surfactant molar ratio (R) on the particle size of MgAl 2 O 4 powder. In the present work, nanosized MgAl 2 O 4 powders were synthesized via reverse microemulsion method and the effects of different surfactants and titration methods on the particle size and morphology were investigated.…”

Low temperature synthesis of nanocrystalline magnesium aluminate with high surface area by surfactant assisted precipitation method: Effect of preparation conditions

“…It has good thermal and mechanical properties, high hardness and low electrical loss [2][3][4]. These special properties make MgAl 2 O 4 a potential candidate for a variety of technological applications, such as substrate for solid-state electronic devices, refractory materials, high brightness phosphor screen and fiber-optic temperature sensors [5,6].…”
