General description
Magnesium acetate tetrahydrate serves as a precursor for the generation of magnesium oxide and magnesium-containing oxides in the forms of thin-film, rode, and porous particles with a high specific surface area.
Application
Magnesium acetate tetrahydrate has been used:
- as a precursor in the synthesis of MgCrMnO4 using a sol-gel method
- as a component of stock solution, buffer 1, buffer 2 and buffer 3 for microsome extraction
- as a precursor in the synthesis of MgCr2-xMnxO4 spinels using aqueous sol-gel reaction
