MAGNESIUM OXIDE LIGHT LR
Magnesium Oxide Light can be used as filling and reinforcing agent for light-colored plastic and rubber products, polishing agent, binding agent, accelerator and activator for fluorine and chloroprene rubber Light magnesium oxide is widely used in glass, dyes, phenolic plastic and other fields.
Magnesium oxide is used for relief of heartburn and dyspepsia, as an antacid, magnesium supplement, and as a short-term laxative. It is also used to improve symptoms of indigestion. Side effects of magnesium oxide may include nausea and cramping.
Light magnesium oxide is produced via lower temperature calcination of magnesium carbonate or magnesium hydroxide. The lower calcination temperature causes the calcined magnesia to have a lower density, so it is considered “light” compared to the denser high temperature calcined magnesia in heavy magnesium oxide.
