Magnesium Oxide / Hydroxide IP

Product Name: Heavy Magnesium Oxide IP Chemical Formula: MgO Appearance: White, odorless, fine, and free-flowing powder Assay (MgO): 95.0% to 100.5% Identification: The sample should match the characteristics of Magnesium Oxide as per the IP standards. Solubility: Insoluble in water and ethanol Slightly soluble in dilute acids (e.g., HCl) Loss on Drying: Not more than 3.0% pH (1% aqueous solution): Between 9.0 to 11.0 Microbial Limits: Meets IP microbial standards for pharmaceutical applications (e.g., absence of pathogens, low total microbial count). Heavy Metals: Not more than 20 ppm

Product Name: Magnesium Hydroxide IP Chemical Formula: Mg(OH) Appearance: White, odorless, and free-flowing powder or suspension in water Assay (Mg(OH)): 98.0% to 101.0% Identification: The sample should match the characteristics of Magnesium Hydroxide as per IP standards. Solubility: Slightly soluble in water, forming a suspension (insoluble in alcohol). Soluble in dilute acids (e.g., hydrochloric acid), forming magnesium salts. Loss on Drying: Not more than 0.5% pH (1% aqueous solution): Between 9.5 to 10.5 Microbial Limits: Meets the Indian Pharmacopoeia (IP) standards for microbial content, ensuring the product is free from harmful pathogens. Heavy Metals: Not more than 20 ppm

Product Name: Light Magnesium Oxide IP Chemical Formula: MgO Appearance: White, fine, odorless, and free-flowing powder Assay (MgO): 92.0% to 100.5% Identification: Matches the characteristics of Magnesium Oxide as per the Indian Pharmacopoeia standards. Solubility: Insoluble in water and ethanol Soluble in dilute acids (e.g., hydrochloric acid) Loss on Drying: Not more than 5.0% pH (1% aqueous solution): Between 9.5 to 10.5 Microbial Limits: Meets IP microbial standards for pharmaceutical applications (absence of harmful microorganisms, low total microbial count). Heavy Metals: Not more than 20 ppm Applications: Pharmaceuticals: Used as an antacid, laxative, and in the preparation of magnesium salts. Food Industry: Used as a nutritional supplement to provide magnesium and as a pH regulator in food products. Industrial: Used in ceramics, refractories, and electrical insulation. Packaging: Typically available in 25 kg or 50 kg HDPE drums or as per customer requirements. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from light and moisture to preserve its quality.
