Calcined Magnesite (MgO) is a mineral that stands out as a crucial raw material in various industrial applications. This mineral plays a critical role across many sectors, particularly in ceramics, refractories, metallurgy, and petrochemicals. At Tecnodieci, we produce this strategic product with the highest quality and competitive prices.
What is Calcined Magnesite?
Calcined Magnesite is a form of magnesium oxide obtained by subjecting natural magnesite ore to a thermal process at temperatures between 700°C and 1000°C. During this process, magnesium carbonate (MgCO3) decomposes, releasing carbon dioxide (CO2) and leaving behind pure MgO, or calcined magnesite. Produced with high purity, this product is widely used in refractory material production due to its resistance to high temperatures, chemical resilience, and low impurity levels.
Production of Calcined Magnesite
Tecnodieci manufactures calcined magnesite with a magnesium oxide (MgO) content ranging from 80% to 98%, tailored to meet the needs of our customers. Our products have surface areas (SSA) varying between 10 and 90 gr/m2, designed to serve different industrial applications. Additionally, our products contain low levels of heavy metals, undesirable trace elements, and SO3, adhering to international standards. This ensures a competitive edge both in local and international markets.
