Abstract

In this contribution, disc like nanosized MgO particles were successfully synthesized by solution-phase method using magnesium chloride (MgCl) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) in ethanol medium. The ethanol and water content were varied and the generated precursor compound was calcined for an hour at temperature of 300 °C. Samples were characterized by XRD, SEM, FT-IR and UV-Vis spectroscopic techniques. The crystallite sizes were in the range of 17–35 nm based on Debye-Scherrer equation. Scanning electron photomicrographs suggest that all the samples were well crystalline, randomly oriented disc like morphology. The FT-IR result shows strengthen other results and also blue shift was noticed in UV–Vis absorption spectra.
