Light magnesium oxide is produced via lower temperature calcination of magnesium carbonate or magnesium hydroxide. The lower calcination temperature causes the calcined magnesia to have a lower density, so it is considered ‘light’ compared to the denser high temperature calcined magnesia in heavy magnesium oxide. Light magnesium oxide derives its utility from its caustic nature when reacted with other metals, and for its higher potential for electrical conductivity. Light magnesium oxide is used primarily in applications that do not have restrictions on its overall mass, as its lower density means that it is more difficult to collect any significant mass of magnesium oxide in a container. However, despite its fluffier nature, light magnesium oxide is ideal for use in water treatment applications. Specifically, light magnesium oxide is used for extracting heavy metal contaminants from drinking and wastewater due to its higher reactivity and larger overall surface area. By and large though, heavy magnesium oxide is preferred for industrial and manufacturing use, particularly where space is at a premium such as concrete or wallboard manufacturing.
RahulMag Light burned magnesium oxide is obtained by firing magnesium hydroxide at low temperature. It has fine particles and excellent reactivity, so it is used as a surface treatment agent and a ceramic raw material. Rahul Magnesia Private Limited manufacturers light magnesium oxide by making full use of our firing technology that has been cultivated over many years and by using high-quality materials. To respond to various demands from our customers, RahulMag offers products with a wide variety of reactivity, particle size and purity.
Light Magnesium Oxide grades manufactured by RahulMag are used as:

What else can I help you with?
What is the name of the white powder that is left when you burn magnesium?
the white powder is magnesium oxide. Magnesium burns in air with a dazzling white light to produce magnesium oxide. the equation is- 2Mg + O2 = 2MgO
White ash obtained by burning magnesium ribbon?
The white ash obtained by burning magnesium ribbon is magnesium oxide (MgO). When magnesium burns in the presence of oxygen, it reacts to form magnesium oxide, which appears as a white powdery ash. Magnesium oxide is commonly used in various industrial applications, as well as in manufacturing pharmaceuticals and supplements.
What relationships are there between magnesium and magnesium oxide?
Magnesium oxide is formed when magnesium metal reacts with oxygen. It is an oxide of magnesium. Magnesium is the metal, and magnesium oxide is the resulting compound formed when magnesium reacts with oxygen.
What is the bright white light from when you burn magnesium strips?
The bright white light when burning magnesium strips is the result of the intense heat produced during the combustion of magnesium. The heat causes the magnesium to react with oxygen in the air, forming magnesium oxide and emitting a blinding white light in the process.
What do you observe when magnesium ribbon is heated to form magnesium oxide?
When magnesium ribbon is heated, it reacts with oxygen in the air to form a white powder, which is magnesium oxide. This reaction is exothermic, producing a bright white light and a release of heat. The magnesium ribbon disappears as it combines with oxygen to form the solid magnesium oxide.
What compound is magnesium and oxygen make?
Magnesium and oxygen combine to form magnesium oxide (MgO). Magnesium oxide is a white solid that occurs naturally as the mineral periclase. It is commonly used in various industrial applications, including as a refractory material and in the production of ceramics.
What does magnesuim and oxygen make?
Magnesium and oxygen combine to form magnesium oxide. It is basic in nature.
What is the name of the white powder that is left when you burn magnesium?
the white powder is magnesium oxide. Magnesium burns in air with a dazzling white light to produce magnesium oxide. the equation is- 2Mg + O2 = 2MgO
White ash obtained by burning magnesium ribbon?
The white ash obtained by burning magnesium ribbon is magnesium oxide (MgO). When magnesium burns in the presence of oxygen, it reacts to form magnesium oxide, which appears as a white powdery ash. Magnesium oxide is commonly used in various industrial applications, as well as in manufacturing pharmaceuticals and supplements.
What is the common name for MgO?
Magnesium Oxide
What does magnesium ribbon leave after burning?
When magnesium ribbon burns, it produces a bright white light and forms magnesium oxide as a white powder residue.
What comes when magnesium ribbon is burnt?
a bright light is created and it then creates magnesium oxide
What is the appearance of magnesium when burnt in air?
Magnesium burns with an intensely bright white light and forms magnesium oxide. Magnesium oxide is a white solid, often a powder. Do not look directly at burning magnesium - it may damage your eyes.
What are the various grades of magnesium oxide?
Magnesium oxide is categorized as a refractory material, which means that it is resistant to decomposition by heat, pressure or chemical attack and retains strength and form at higher temperatures.Rahul Magnesia Pvt. Ltd. is one of the leading manufacturer and supplier of magnesium oxide from India. The company also deals with exports of calcined magnesium oxide, magnesium sulphate, magnesium chloride, magnesium carbonate and light magnesium oxide.Light Burned Magnesium OxideLight burned magnesium oxide is a reactive grade of magnesium oxide that has been calcined at temperatures ranging from 700ºC – 1000ºC. Rahul Mag’s high purity light burned magnesium oxide products have a wide range of reactivity and are used in various applications.Hard burned Magnesium OxideHard burned magnesium oxide is a low reactive grade of magnesium oxide that has been calcined at temperatures ranging from 1000ºC – 1500ºC. Due to its narrow range of reactivity, hard burned magnesium oxide is typically used in applications where slow degradation or chemical reactivity is required.Dead Burned MgODead burned magnesium oxide has been calcined at temperatures ranging from 1500ºC – 2000ºC in a high temperature shaft kiln yielding a material with very little reactivity. Dead Burned Magnesium Oxide products are high purity, dead burned magnesium oxides with high density and low reactivity.Specialty MgOSpecialty magnesium oxides are manufactured to precise specifications in chemistry, size and surface area. Specialty high surface area magnesium oxides are calcined at temperatures below 700°C to produce highly reactive magnesium oxides for use in specialty applications.
What do magnesium and oxygen make?
If you heat magnesium and oxygen together then you will make MgO or Magnesium oxide.
What relationships are there between magnesium and magnesium oxide?
Magnesium oxide is formed when magnesium metal reacts with oxygen. It is an oxide of magnesium. Magnesium is the metal, and magnesium oxide is the resulting compound formed when magnesium reacts with oxygen.
What white powder do you get when you burn magnesium?
When you burn magnesium, it forms magnesium oxide, which is a white powder. This reaction occurs when magnesium reacts with oxygen in the air, producing a bright white light and the white powdery magnesium oxide residue.
