Magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)₂) is generated during the production of magnesium oxide. Nedmag produces magnesium hydroxide as stable suspension with exceptional flow and storage properties.
Nedmag's magnesium hydroxide is a stable suspension of magnesium hydroxide in water with a 53% solid matter concentration. The suspension is produced synthetically from pure magnesium chloride from Veendam and Belgian dolomite. Nedmag's magnesium hydroxide is available in different varieties in bulk quantities.
Applications
Nedmag supplies magnesium hydroxide that is very suitable for bleaching pulp, wastewater treatment, and flue gas treatment. For flue gas desulphurization, a new product is introduced called Mg(OH)₂Mare. Magnesiumhydroxide is also used in industrial processes such as the production of paper, rubber, plastic, and ceramic products.
Nedmag's magnesium hydroxide has been registered with ECHA in compliance with REACH, the pan-European regulation for the registration, evaluation, and authorisation of chemicals. Registration number: 01-2119488756-18-0015.
The product is not classified as "a substance of very high concern" and thus can be used safely.
