Application


  • Bio-corrosion behavior and mechanical characteristics of magnesium-titania-hydroxyapatite nanocomposites coated by magnesium-oxide flakes and silicon for use as resorbable bone fixation material.: Investigates magnesium oxide coatings to improve the biocompatibility and mechanical properties of bone implants, crucial in analytical and biomaterials chemistry (Khalajabadi et al., 2018).

  • Certification of caffeine reference material purity by ultraviolet/visible spectrophotometry and high-performance liquid chromatography with diode-array detection as two independent analytical methods.: While focused on caffeine, the rigorous analytical methods described could be applicable for studies involving magnesium oxide in chemical analysis (Shehata et al., 2016).

  • Hybrid organic-inorganic coatings via electron transfer behaviour.: Explores the electron transfer properties of coatings involving inorganic compounds like magnesium oxide, important for materials science and analytical chemistry (Zoubi et al., 2017).
