Magnesium Oxide, also known as Magnesia, Oxomagnesium, Periclase, Magnesium Oxide, and Seawater Magnesia, appears as a white hygroscopic powder and is insoluble in Water at ambient conditions. It is normally available in two forms, i.e., heavy and light. Magnesium Oxide Heavy is an extremely pure and dense form of Magnesium Oxide with excellent compression properties. It constitutes a minimal magnesium oxide content of 98%. Whereas, the light form is less dense having more porosity and water contents. It constitutes a minimal magnesium oxide content of 95%.
Chemicals in the Reagent Grade category have high purity and are best suited for analytical purposes. They're useful in research investigations as they produce consistent, trustworthy, andrepeatable findings.
