Product Description

1. Definition

Magnesium chloride hexahydrate, with the chemical formula MgCl2 6H2O, is a hydrated inorganic salt. It consists of magnesium ions, Cl ions, and six water molecules in its crystalline structure. This white, deliquescent compound readily absorbs moisture from the air, making it a key material in various industrial and practical applications.

2. Physical and Chemical Properties

Physical Properties: It has a melting point of around 117°C, during which it decomposes while losing water molecules. The compound is highly soluble in water, with a density of approximately 1.56 grams per cubic centimeter. Its crystals are often colorless or white and have a salty taste.
Chemical Properties: Stable under normal conditions, it can react with strong bases. When heated, it gradually loses its water of crystallization. In aqueous solutions, it dissociates into magnesium and Cl ions, which can participate in various chemical reactions.

3. Production Methods

   Seawater or Brine Processing: Seawater or natural brines rich in magnesium salts are common raw materials. Through processes like evaporation, concentration, and crystallization, magnesium chloride hexahydrate is separated from other components.

   Reaction with Minerals: Reacting Mg - containing minerals, such as magnesite, with HCl can also produce magnesium chloride hexahydrate. The resulting solution is then purified and crystallized.

4. Packaging and Transportation

   Packaging: Usually packed in moisture - proof bags or sealed containers, like plastic drums or woven bags, to prevent moisture absorption during storage and transit.

   Transportation: During transportation, it should be kept dry and away from substances that can react with it. Covered vehicles are used to avoid exposure to rain and humidity.

5. Environmental and Safety

   Environmental Impact: When released into the environment, it can increase the salinity of soil and water. However, its ecological impact is relatively low in moderate amounts.

   Safety Precautions: Handling requires gloves and protective eyewear as it may cause skin and eye irritation. In case of contact, rinse immediately with plenty of water.

6. Storage Methods

Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture sources. Keep it separate from reactive chemicals. Regularly check storage containers for any signs of leakage or damage.

7. Market Information

The market demand for magnesium chloride hexahydrate comes from industries like construction, agriculture, and chemical manufacturing. Its price is influenced by factors such as raw material availability, production costs, and global market trends.

8. Downstream Industrial Chain

    Construction: Used in the production of fireproof boards and as a component in cement to improve its properties.

    Agriculture: Applied as a magnesium - rich fertilizer to enhance soil quality and plant growth.

  Chemical Industry: Serves as a raw material for producing other magnesium compounds and as a desiccant in some processes.

Application

De - icing Agent:
Magnesium chloride hexahydrate is an eco - friendly de - icing option. Applied on roads and sidewalks, it effectively melts ice by lowering the freezing point of water, minimizing environmental harm compared to some alternatives.

Agricultural Use:
In farming, it acts as a magnesium - rich fertilizer, improving soil quality and enhancing crop growth. It also helps prevent magnesium deficiency in plants, boosting their resistance to diseases.

Industrial Processes:
In the textile industry, it softens fabrics during processing. In the paper industry, it serves as a sizing agent, enhancing paper strength and smoothness.

Concrete and Construction:
Adding it to concrete mixtures helps regulate the setting time, especially in cold weather. It also improves the durability and flexibility of concrete structures.

Food Industry:
As a food additive, it stabilizes and thickens products. It's used in making tofu to coagulate soy milk, and in some dairy products to improve texture.
