Abstract

Composite-hydroxide-mediated (CHM) method is used to prepare magnesium oxide, in this preparation magnesium chloride (MgCl2) salt is used with specific ratios of Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and Potassium hydroxide (KOH) and the whole reaction done in a vacuum less muffle furnace, firstly the product was obtained is magnesium hydroxide Mg(OH)2. We annealed this product at different temperatures to discuss the percentage composition of magnesium oxide in magnesium hydroxide and also discuss the temperature at which magnesium hydroxide is completely converted in magnesium oxide. For indirect prepared magnesium oxide we discussed, Grain size, Structure, Miller indices, Lattice constant, Strain, Dislocation density and Density using XRD technique and
