Abstract: The equilibrium pressures of vapor Mg from the reductive reaction of carbon and magnesia at different temperature were calculated. The thermodynamics conditions of the preparation of MgO whiskers were given. Using the theoretical results, the preparation experiment of MgO whiskers was designed. The XRD pattern and SEM microphotograph of MgO whiskers had proved the correctness of the theoretical analysis.
Keywords: MgO whiskers, thermodynamics, carbon - reduction method
