Abstract Magnesium ammonium phosphate hexahydrate, also known as struvite (MAP) is a major component of urinary calculi. In the present study growth of struvite crystals using sodium meta silicate gel techniques by single diffusion method. The crystals were characterized by FT-IR, powder XRD, SEM with EDS and thermal analyses such that TG-DTA respectively. FT-IR revealed that the all the functional groups present in the samples. Further, XRD revealed the phase, purity and crystalline nature with orthorhombic in nature of struvite crystals. The morphology, topography and the elemental compositions of samples were determined by SEM and with EDS. In addition, the endothermicexothermic and phase transition of were found from TG-DTA analyses. The results of the present study are so useful to the scientific community because it provides the adequate information to the people and society those are affected from the struvite crystals. These struvite crystals mostly affected the women as compare to the men.
