Magnesium carbonate is a white powder -shaped inorganic compound with a chemical formula MGCO3. It has water absorption and oily, slightly soluble in water, acetone and liquid ammonia. The use of magnesium carbonate is mainly in the following aspects:
1. Medicine
Magnesium carbonate can be used to prepare drugs such as stomach, magnesium lactate, and can also be used as a gastrointestinal -related drug such as acidic and constipation drugs.
2. Food
Magnesium carbonate can be used as a food additive, used as a pouring agent, pH regulator, chelating agent, and nutritional enhancer. In the food industry, magnesium carbonate is commonly used for puffed food, noodles, dairy products, drinks, etc.
3. Chemical
Magnesium carbonate can be used to produce magnesium salts such as magnesium oxide, magnesium sulfate, and magnesium chloride, and can also be used as a reinforced agent, filling agent, and fire prevention materials, cable materials, ceramic materials, etc.
4. Others
Magnesium carbonate can also be used for sports, such as gymnastics, weightlifting and rock climbing athletes often use magnesium carbonate to keep their hands dry and enhance friction. In addition, magnesium carbonate can also be used for desiccants, color protectives, carriers, anti -knot blocks, etc.
The specific purpose is as follows:
Medicine intermediate: It is used to produce drugs such as stomach comfort, magnesium lactate.
Resolving acid: It is used for neutralizing gastric acid to treat excessive gastric acid, stomach pain, and stomach burning.
Desiccant: For dry gases, liquid and solids.
Molester: It is used in foods, cosmetics and other products to prevent discoloration.
Verse: For preparations for drugs, pesticides and other products.
Resistant block: It is used in foods, chemicals and other products to prevent clocks.
Food additives: used as a pouring agent, pH regulator, chelating agent, nutritional reinforcement, etc.
Rubber supplement: Increase the strength, abrasion resistance and elasticity of rubber.
Fire materials: used to make fireproof boards, fireproof coatings, etc.
Wire and cable material: used to make cable insulation layers.
Ceramic additives: Increase the strength and gloss of ceramics.
Sports: Gymnastics, weightlifting and rock climbers use magnesium carbonate to keep their hands dry and enhance friction.
