Magnesium Oxide Powder Description

Magnesium oxide powder is a high-purity, white, odorless solid with excellent stability and low reactivity in neutral and organic environments. It belongs to the alkaline earth metal oxides and displays amphoteric behavior, dissolving in acidic and ammonium salt solutions. Upon calcination at elevated temperatures, it forms a stable crystalline phase. This material is commonly used in ceramics, electronics, coatings, construction, and polymer industries due to its high purity, chemical resistance, and functional versatility.
