Magnesium Oxide 54%

Agricultural Uses

• Soil Conditioner

  • Soil Quality Improvement: It is used to correct soil acidity and improve fertility. Magnesium is an essential nutrient for plants, and its application can help balance soil pH levels.

  • Magnesium Supplement: Magnesium oxide is used to provide magnesium, which is crucial for photosynthesis and other metabolic processes in plants.

• Fertilizer:

  • Magnesium Supply: Employed as a component of compound fertilizers to ensure an adequate supply of magnesium to crops. This is especially useful in magnesium-deficient soils.
     

Industrial Uses

• Construction Industry:

  • Refractory Material: Magnesium oxide is used in the production of refractory materials due to its high resistance to extreme temperatures. It is found in refractory bricks, cements, and mortars used in furnaces, boilers, and other high-temperature industrial equipment.

  • Magnesia Cement: Used in the production of magnesia cements, which are highly resistant to fire and chemicals.

• Glass and Ceramics Industry:

  • Additive: Used as an additive in the manufacture of glass and ceramics to improve their physical and chemical properties.

• Paper and Pulp Industry:

  • Processing Additive: Employed in the kraft pulp process for paper production, where it helps control pH and improve the quality of the final product.

• Chemical Industry:

  • Chemical Products Manufacturing: Used in the synthesis of various chemical products, including catalysts and magnesium compounds.
     

Livestock Uses

• Nutritional Supplement:

  • Magnesium Supply: Added to animal feed to ensure they receive enough magnesium, essential for their growth and development. It helps prevent hypomagnesemia (magnesium deficiency), which can cause health problems in livestock.

• Digestion Improvement:

  • Acid Neutralizer: Used to help neutralize stomach acid in ruminant animals, improving digestion and nutrient absorption.
     

Other Uses

• Thermal and Acoustic Insulation:

  • Insulation Material: Used in the manufacture of thermal and acoustic insulation materials due to its excellent insulating properties.

• Energy Industry:

  • Production of Fuels and Lubricants: Used in the production of certain types of fuels and lubricants where pH control and impurity absorption are critical.

• Water Treatment:

  • Water Softening: Employed in water treatment systems to reduce water hardness by removing calcium and magnesium ions.

  • Acid Neutralization: Used to neutralize acids in industrial wastewater treatment.
