Magnesium oxide mgo aluminium oxide
The ionic compound magnesium oxide is a white hygroscopic solid mineral that forms by the reaction of magnesium with oxygen. The mineral is an essential ingredient in the manufacture of refractory bricks, electrical and thermal insulators, cements, fertilizers, rubber, plastics, and more. It is also used as a laxative and antacid.
Magnesium oxide possesses unique properties that make it an ideal material for refractory materials and other industrial applications. These properties include a high melting point, excellent resistance to basic slags, high thermal and electrical conductivity, low chemical reactivity, and good mechanical strength.
MgO is also very effective for a variety of other industrial applications, such as corrosion inhibition in metallurgical processes, and for use as a chemical stabilizer to improve the pH of water and soil during metals stabilization. In addition, MgO is an excellent anticaking agent and can be used as a protective coating in plasma displays.
Compared to sodium oxide, MgO is less basic, because the attraction between the Mg2+ and O2- ions is not as strong as in sodium oxide. This means that a larger amount of energy is required to break the association between the Mg2+ and O2-ions in magnesium oxide than in sodium oxide.
MgO is an excellent sintering aid, because it slows down the migration of grain boundaries during sintering. It is used in various refractory bricks and in the production of castables, gunnables, rammables, and spinel formulations. It can be formed from a variety of methods, including cold crucible melting and arc-fusion growth. The most common technique for preparing MgO single crystals is submerged arc fusion growth, which results in high-quality crystals with areas of several square millimeters. The resulting crystals typically have dislocation densities of 1-2×105 cm-2 in the rims and 5-10×105 cm-2 in the interior.
