Technical resources for specifying magnesium oxide and magnesium hydroxide
Reference material for the people who have to specify magnesia rather than buy it on price: what reactivity means, what calcination does to it, and how each segment defines the grade it needs. The section is being written now, and the standard it is being written to is set out below.
-
01
Technical notes and explainers
Short pieces on the properties that decide whether a magnesia works in your process: reactivity, thermal history, particle size and assay basis.
- In preparation
-
02
Whitepapers and studies
Longer technical and research pieces, published only where the method is sound and the attribution is complete.
- In preparation
-
03
Application guides
How to specify magnesium oxide or magnesium hydroxide for a given segment, in the vocabulary that segment actually uses.
- In preparation
-
04
Certificates, data sheets and safety data sheets
The certificate of analysis, technical data sheet and safety data sheet for any grade. This one is not coming later. Request it today.

The standard
We would rather publish nothing than publish something you can take apart.
A technical library is only worth having if a sophisticated reader can go through it looking for weaknesses and not find any. That sets a bar. Anything published here has to hold up to a chemist who disagrees with it, a competitor reading it with a copy of our certificate of analysis open, and a regulator. Work that cannot clear all three does not go up, however useful it would be to have something on the page.
So the buckets are empty and they are empty on purpose. Every study we publish will name its method and its laboratory. Every technical note will stay inside what the specification data actually supports. Nothing here will be a document that exists only as a title.
In the meantime the questions still have answers. Ask us directly and you will get one from the specification rather than from a brochure, or request the certificate of analysis, technical data sheet or safety data sheet for the grade you are evaluating.
The answer you came for, without waiting for the article.
Tell us the grade you are evaluating and the parameter you are trying to hit. We will answer from the specification data and send the documentation for that grade.
