SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERISATION OF MAGNESIUM OXIDE(MGO) BY CO-PRECIPITATION METHOD

Metal oxide nanoparticles are remarkable materials that possess unique characteristics such as chemical stability, high photocatalytic activity, and high electric permittivity.The material is therefore used in a wide range of applications, such as in optical, electrical, and electronic devices, as well as in antiseptic, antibacterial, environmental, semiconductor, and catalytic applications.The current study's goal is to synthesize and characterize magnesium oxide nanoparticles (MgO).These nanoparticles are created utilizing a simple chemical process known as the Chemical Co-Precipitation method and Magnesium Nitrate acts as the core precursor.With the aid of scanning electron microscopes, EDX, and Fourier transform infrared Imaging, the morphology, elemental composition, and functional group of the metal oxide nanoparticles were determined.
