Epoch master® Magnesium hydroxide is an inorganic substance with the chemical formula of Mg (OH) 2, white amorphous powder or colorless hexagonal column crystal, soluble in dilute acid and ammonium salt solution, almost insoluble in water, partially ionized in water, and the aqueous solution is weakly alkaline. When heated to 350 ℃, the natural mineral brucite of magnesium hydroxide can be used to make sugar and magnesium oxide. Because magnesium hydroxide is rich in nature, and its chemical properties are similar to aluminum, users began to use magnesium hydroxide instead of aluminum chloride for fragrance products. It is used as analytical reagent and also used in pharmaceutical industry.
Magnesium hydroxide is an excellent flame retardant for plastic and rubber products. In terms of environmental protection, it can be used as desulfurizer for flue gas, and can replace caustic soda and lime as neutralizer for acid-containing wastewater. It can also be used as an oil additive for corrosion prevention and desulfurization. In addition, it can also be used in the refining of electronic industry, medicine, granulated sugar, as thermal insulation materials and other magnesium salt products.
