General description

Magnesium chloride hexahydrate is a highly water soluble crystalline solid widely used in nanomaterial synthesis and thermal energy storage.

Application

Magnesium chloride hexahydrate can be used:
  • As a precursor to synthesize magnesium hydroxide nanoparticles for flame retardant applications.
  • As magnesium source to prepare hydroxyapatite nanoparticles for biomedical application.
  • To fabricate phase change materials for passive thermal control of lithium-ion batteries.

Brittleness is one of the important material properties that influences the success or failure of powder compaction. We have discovered that the reciprocal of diametrical elastic strain at fracture is the most suitable tablet brittleness indices (TBIs) for quantifying brittleness

Telmisartan (TEL) belongs to BCS class II (low solubility/high permeability) and exhibits the pH-dependent drug release. Since 3-aminopropyl functionalized magnesium phyllosilicate (aminoclay) can intercalate or adsorb the negatively charged molecules via the electrostatic interaction, TEL-aminoclay complex was synthesized to improve
