Microwave-assisted rapid synthesis of magnesium phosphate hydrate nanosheets and their application in drug delivery and protein adsorption

Magnesium phosphate biomaterial, as an alternative to well-known calcium phosphate biomaterials, is an excellent candidate for biomedical applications, owing to its outstanding biocompatibility and biodegradability. Herein, we report a simple strategy for the rapid synthesis of magnesium phosphate hydrate nanosheets (MPHSs) using the microwave-assisted hydrothermal method. This method is facile, rapid, surfactant-free and environmentally...
