ABSTRACT Here we report for the first time the time-dependent mechanisms of self assembly and growth of Mg(OH)2 nanoparticles. For this purpose, the nanopowders are obtained by a simple chemical precipitation route. To understand the route map of the growth process; the nanopowders are subsequently characterized by XRD, FTIR, BET, pore size distribution, FESEM and TEM analysis techniques. Based on the results obtained from aforesaid characterizations the mechanisms of self-assembly and nanoplatelets growth process as a function of reaction time are explained.
