Magnesium chloride, chemical formula MgCl2. The substance can form hexahydrate, namely magnesium chloride hexahydrate (MgCl2 · 6H2O), which contains six crystalline waters. Anhydrous magnesium chloride is often called halogen powder in industry, while magnesium chloride hexahydrate is often called halogen sheet, halogen particle, halogen block, etc.

The use of magnesium chloride can be divided into three aspects: industrial grade, food grade and pharmaceutical grade.
1、 Industrial applications
1. As a road deicing and snowmelting agent, it has fast deicing speed, low corrosivity to vehicles and little damage to soil. Its liquid form can be used for road antifreeze measures. Before winter rainfall, it is often sprayed on the road to prevent road icing. Therefore, it can prevent vehicles from slipping and ensure road safety.

2. Magnesium chloride controls dust. It can absorb moisture in the air, so it can be used in dusty places to suppress the dust on the floor, so as to prevent the diffusion of small dust particles in the air. It is often used in excavation sites, indoor sports venues, racecourses, etc.
3. Store hydrogen. This compound can be used to store hydrogen. An ammonia molecule is rich in hydrogen atoms. Ammonia can be absorbed by the surface of solid magnesium chloride. Slight heating can release ammonia from magnesium chloride and obtain hydrogen through the catalyst.
4. This compound can be used to make cement. Because of its non combustible characteristics, it is often used in various fire prevention equipment. The textile and paper industries also make full use of this.
5. Magnesium chloride is used as a viscosity control agent in cosmetics and skin care products.
6. Softener and fixing agent in detergent.
7. Industrial grade magnesium chloride is a natural decolorizer, which plays a great role in the decolorization of reactive dyes.
8. As an additive of silica gel products, magnesium chloride modified silica gel can significantly increase the moisture absorption.
9. Nutrient for microorganisms in sewage treatment (can promote the activation of microorganisms).
10. The moisturizer and stabilizer of particles in ink can improve the freshness of color.
11. The moisturizer and particle stabilizer of color powder can improve the freshness of color.
12. The additive of polishing ceramics can improve the surface gloss and strengthen the hardness.
13. Raw materials for fluorescent coatings.
14. Raw material of insulating coating on the surface of integrated circuit board.
2、 Food grade applications
1. Magnesium chloride can be used as a coagulant for tofu, which is characterized by the tenderness, smoothness and elasticity of the tofu and strong bean flavor.
2. Protein coagulant of dried bean curd and oil tofu. Dried bean curd and oil tofu are not easy to break.

4. Water removing agent (for fish cake, dosage: 0.05% ~ 0.1%)
5. Tissue improver (used together with polyphosphate as elastic enhancer of surimi and shrimp surimi products) is less than 0.1% because of its strong bitterness;
6. Mineral fortifier, used in health food and health drink. Magnesium chloride is also an integral part of infant formula.
In addition, it has been widely used in the production and processing of salt, mineral water, bread, aquatic preservation, melons, fruits and vegetables. In the process of food processing, it can also be used as curing agent, bulking agent, protein coagulant, dehydrating agent, fermentation aid, tissue modifier and so on. Also as a nutritional enhancer; Flavoring agent (combined with magnesium sulfate, table salt, calcium hydrogen phosphate, calcium sulfate, etc.); Wheat flour treatment agent; Dough quality improver; Oxidant; Canned fish meat modifier; Malt saccharifying agent.
3、 Pharmaceutical applications
Because it is rich in magnesium, it is the most effective nutritional supplement. There are tablets and capsules. Magnesium is an indispensable element for various functions of the body. It helps strengthen bones and teeth and prevent blood from clotting. Taking appropriate doses can prevent serious diseases, such as heart disease, osteoporosis and so on.
1. The raw material of gastric cancer medicine has a certain protective effect on gastric mucosa.
2. Artificial seawater is one of the necessary raw materials.
3. One of the raw materials of bath salt, which can sweat.
4. Renal dialysis raw materials.
5. It has certain anesthetic and calming effects on mammals.
6. Magnesium chloride can disturb the intestines and stomach, and the laxative contains magnesium chloride
The above are the most complete uses of magnesium chloride. Our main products of Jinlun salt chemical plant are the R & D and production of magnesium series products with magnesium chloride resources in Qinghai Salt Lake as raw materials. At present, it has developed exquisite white magnesium chloride, edible magnesium chloride, magnesium type snow melting agent and dust removal agent. The products cover the domestic market, and more than 50% of the products enter the international market, including Japan, South Korea, the United States, New Zealand and other countries. Its standard has reached the international standard of similar products, and some products are at the leading level. Welcome new and old customers to purchase.
