Properties of Light Magnesium Oxide

The molecular formula of light magnesium oxide is MgO, and the relative molecular mass is 40.30. The light magnesium oxide is a white amorphous powder that is odorless, tasteless, and non-toxic. Insoluble in water, insoluble in alcohol, soluble in acid or ammonium salt solution, the solubility in water increases with the increase of CO2 content in water, melting point is 2852 ℃, boiling point is 3600 ℃, after 1000 ℃. Above high temperature Burning, can be converted into crystals. When the temperature rises above 1500 ℃, it will become dead burned magnesia or sintered magnesia. Absorb carbon dioxide and water in the air to produce basic magnesium carbonate.

The use of light magnesium oxide

Lightweight magnesium oxide is mainly used in the production of rubber products and neoprene adhesives. Magnesium oxide acts as an acid absorber and accelerator in rubber manufacturing, as well as vulcanization crosslinking, anti-scorching agent and resin chelation in neoprene adhesives. . Magnesium oxide plays a role in lowering the sintering temperature in ceramics and enamels. It is used as a filler in the manufacture of grinding wheels and paints, as an antacid and laxative in medicine for the treatment of hyperacidity, gastric and duodenal ulcers, and as a whitening agent or in food processing. Granulated sugar decolorizer. The biggest use in agriculture is as a feed for fertilizers and livestock. It is the main element in the metabolic process of plants and animals. When used as a feed for cows, it can prevent the dysfunction of the nervous system caused by magnesium deficiency. In addition, it can also be used in glass fiber reinforced plastics, dyeing chemicals, electronics industry, insulation material industry, petroleum additives, casting, phenolic plastics and other industries.

Application of light magnesium oxide:
