The Properties And Application of Magnesium oxide

Overview of magnesium oxide MgO

 Magnesium oxide is an inorganic substance with a chemical formula of MgO, an oxide of magnesium, and an ionic compound. It is a white solid at room temperature. Magnesium oxide exists in nature in the form of periclase and is a raw material for smelting magnesium.

Magnesium oxide MgO is commonly known as bitter soil, also known as magnesium oxide. Magnesium oxide is an alkaline oxide with the same properties as alkaline oxides and is a gelling substance. White powder (magnesium nitride is light yellow), odorless, tasteless, non-toxic, is a typical alkaline earth metal oxide, chemical formula MgO. White powder, melting point 2852℃, boiling point 3600℃, relative density 3.58 (25℃). Soluble in acid and ammonium salt solution, insoluble in alcohol. The solubility in water is 0.00062 g/100 mL (0 °C)

There are two types of magnesia: light magnesia and heavy magnesia. Light weight and large volume, white amorphous powder. Odorless, tasteless and non-toxic. The density is 3.58g/cm3. It is hardly soluble in pure water and organic solvents, and its solubility in water increases due to the presence of carbon dioxide. It is soluble in acid and ammonium salt solution, and turns into crystals after high temperature combustion. In case of carbon dioxide in the air, magnesium carbonate double salt is formed. The weight is dense in volume and is white or beige powder. It is easily hydrated and easily absorbs moisture and carbon dioxide in the exposed air. It is easy to gel and harden when mixed with magnesium chloride solution.

Application of Magnesium Oxide MgO

Nano-magnesium oxide MgO has obvious small size effect, surface effect, quantum size effect and macro-tunneling effect, and there is no agglomeration phenomenon after modification. It has many special functions and important application values in optics, catalysis, magnetism, mechanics, chemical engineering, etc. It has a very broad prospect and is an important new material in the 21st century. Electronics, catalysis, ceramics, oil products, coatings and other fields are used in different products and play different roles. Used as a flame retardant in the chemical fiber and plastic industries; used as a high-temperature dehydrating agent in silicon production as a binder and additive in steel plates, advanced ceramic materials, electronic industry materials, and chemical raw materials; high-frequency magnetic rod antennas, magnetics in the radio industry Device packing, insulating material packing and various carriers; refractory fibers and refractory materials, magnesia chrome bricks, heat-resistant coatings, high temperature resistance, insulating meters, electrical, cables, optical materials, steel-making fillers; electrical insulating materials, manufacturing crucibles, Electric furnace, insulated pipe (tubular element), electrode rod, electrode sheet.

In the textile field, with the increasing demand for high-performance flame-retardant fibers, synthetic new high-performance flame retardants provide ideal materials for the development of functional fabrics. Nano-magnesium oxide is often used together with wood chips and shavings to make refractory materials such as lightweight, sound insulation, heat insulation, refractory fiberboard, and cermet. Compared with some traditional phosphorus-containing or halogen-containing organic flame retardants, nano-magnesium oxide is non-toxic, odorless, and has a small addition amount. It is an ideal additive for the development of flame-retardant fibers. -Magnesium oxide for fuel has a strong ability to clean and inhibit corrosion, and has a good application prospect in coatings.

 Due to the excellent characteristics of magnesium oxide MgO in electrical, thermal and mechanical properties, it is widely used in the field of semiconductor electronic packaging.
