General description

Magnesium nitrate hexahydrate is a hydrated magnesium salt. A mixture of magnesium nitrate hexahydrate and magnesium chloride hexahydrate has been reported as a potential phase change material (PCM) for the storage of latent thermal energy. It has been employed as a base material in this mixture to evaluate the storage and effective utilization of urban waste heat from emerged co-generation systems. Its crystals belong to the monoclinic crystal system.

Application

Magnesium nitrate hexahydrate may be used as a starting material for the synthesis of Mg-Al spinel precursors, required for the preparation of magnesium aluminate spinel (MgAl2O4) powder.

Mesoporous magnesium silicate (m-MS) was synthesized, and the in vitro degradability, bioactivity and primary cell responses to m-MS were investigated. The results suggested that the m-MS with mesoporous channels of approximately 5nm possessed the high specific surface area of 451.0m(2)/g
