A general one-step route has been developed for the selective synthesis of magnesium silicate hollow spheres, core-shell spheres, and nanotubes. The formation mechanism was studied. The concentration of NaOH played an important role in the synthesis of hollow and core-shell spheres, while the addition of glycol played a critical role in the synthesis of silicate nanotubes. These nanostructures usually have BET surface areas of 200-400 m(2)/g. Further investigation of their ion exchange performance shows that they are indeed perfect candidates as absorbents for heavy metal ions including Pb2+, Cr3+, Cd2+, etc.
