Why is it important?
The syntheses of Gd(OH)3 and Gd(OH)3-based nanomaterials have been reported and these materials have been developed as excellent MRI contrast agents. Due to the close interrelation between their morphology and properties, it has resulted in the development of various particle sizes and shapes of Gd(OH)3 and Gd(OH)3-based nanomaterials. This has led to the extension of the uses of the materials to photocatalysis, drug delivery, and CT image contrast agents. Accordingly, these applications have been compiled and discussed in depth in this review. The potential of these materials in the above applications has started to attract significant attention. Moreover, the compilation of in-vitro toxicity studies from the literature was also discussed to facilitate the biocompatibility of the developed Gd(OH)3 nanomaterials. However, despite the rapid progress of Gd(OH)3 and Gd(OH)3-based nanomaterials, there are still knowledge gaps in certain areas. Therefore, this review provides insights into the recent development of Gd(OH)3 and Gd(OH)3-based nanomaterials to aid in accelerating novel developments.
