Magnesium Oxide
This product has been discontinued and removed from our shelves.
Application
Magnesium oxide is often adopted to buffer PH value of polymers in the range of 8.5-10.0, and it also deters acid hydrolysis and thus extends the upper temperature limit of polymers. So, thermal degradation is avoided.
Aside from these, this alkaline earth metal oxide offers supplementary filtration control and stabilizes polymer systems with the help of other additives, such as sodium chloride, oil soluble resin or calcium carbonate.

Safety and Handling
For safety considerations, personal protective equipment is highly recommended and actually it is a must. Before work, please refer to the precautions illustrated in the MSDS.
Packaging and Storage
Magnesium oxide is packed in 25kg PP woven bags or 1MT bulk bags.
The container should be closed, and then placed at a dry, well-ventilated area that is away from heat, sparks, flames and incompatible materials. For palletizing, banding, shrink-wrapping and stacking operations, please follow safe warehousing practices.
