The role of Magnesium in industry

Magnesium-based functional materials refer to Magnesium Oxides, magnesium salts, and other related compounds that play irreplaceable roles in various industries. Magnesium oxide, a widely used inorganic compound, is the raw material to produce magnesium material. It has high refractoriness, insulation, and bonding properties. Magnesium oxide is widely used in the refractory, ceramic, building materials, fine chemicals, environmental protection, catalysis, flame retardants, electronics, textiles, rubber, paper making industries and so on. With the demands and development of industrial upgrading and high-tech functional materials markets, a series of high-precision magnesium oxide products such as high purity magnesium oxide and nanometer magnesium oxide have been widely used in industrial applications. These products are mainly used in high-grade lubricants, high-grade tanning, silicon steel grade, high-grade electromagnetic grade, high purity magnesium oxide, and nanometer magnesium oxide. Magnesium salts are diverse and include mainly magnesium sulfate, magnesium chloride, magnesium nitrate, magnesium carbonate, magnesium hydroxide, magnesium acetate, magnesium borate, magnesium citrate, and so on. In addition to their agricultural and medical uses, these salts also have a wide range of applications in industry. They can be used as modifiers to improve surface roughness, corrosion resistance, and wear resistance. Magnesium salts can also act as purifiers, inert binders, chemical auxiliaries, and so on.

The primary source of magnesium supplementation for plants is the rational use of magnesium fertilizers.
