The precursor MgSO4·5Mg(OH)2·2H2O (152 MOS) single component was prepared by hydrothermal synthesis reaction in MgSO4 solution and NaOH solution. MgO whisker was prepared by heating treatment of the precursor at low heating speed to keep the structure of the precursor not be destroyed. The composition, the morphology and the structure of these whiskers were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results indicate that the MgO whisker was about 0.5-1.2 μm in diameter and 20-80 μm in length, with an aspect ratio no less than 100.展开更多
