Magnesium Oxide (MgO)

Magnesium Oxide (MgO) is an inorganic compound composed of magnesium and oxygen. It is a white, crystalline substance with several important properties and applications.

Properties:

• High Melting Point: Magnesium oxide has an extremely high melting point (approximately 2,800°C), making it stable at high temperatures.
• Good Electrical Insulator: It does not conduct electricity, which makes it valuable in electrical applications.
• Alkaline Nature: MgO reacts with acids and can act as a base in chemical reactions.

 

Applications:

• Construction Materials: Used in the production of cement, masonry, and as an insulating material.
• Medical Products: Employed as an antacid to relieve heartburn and as a dietary supplement for magnesium.
• Industrial Uses: Utilized in glass manufacturing, rubber production, and ceramics.
• Catalyst: Can serve as a catalyst in various chemical reactions.

Environmental Benefits:

Magnesium oxide is also known for its eco-friendly properties, as it can be used to neutralize acids in waste management.

 

Availability:

Magnesium oxide can be supplied in bulk, IBC containers, drums, and cans.
