Before the industrial age, people referred to salt, especially table salt used for seasoning in daily life, rather than "salt" in chemical science today. However, in real life, a considerable number of people are not very educated and unclear. So, magnesium chloride manufacturers bring a little science of magnesium chloride knowledge.
Magnesium chloride manufacturers introduce whether it is anhydrous magnesium chloride or hexahydrate magnesium chloride, they have one common feature: easy to absorb moisture. So many people are asking: Is magnesium chloride a precipitate?
It is common among chlorides that silver chloride is precipitated, and magnesium chloride is easily soluble in water. However, if the amount is large and the water is small, it may reach saturation and cannot be completely dissolved (this may be too small); or the temperature is high and the concentration is large, and hydrolysis occurs.
But it will not precipitate, there will be colloids (not a solution but still transparent and natural flow), but it is still not precipitated, and no precipitation can be seen.
What is the difference between magnesium chloride and industrial salt?
1. Different products:
1. Magnesium chloride, also known as bittern flakes, bittern, is made from brucite or directly from the mother liquor of salt making. Edible magnesium chloride can be used as a food additive in the production of bean products, as a stabilizer or coagulant. A small amount of consumption has no side effects on the human body.
2. Edible "salt" and industrial "salt" are not the same chemical composition. Edible salt is sodium chloride, and industrial salt is sodium nitrite.
2. Different uses
1. Industrial salt has a wide range of uses, specifically in the following areas: chemical industry, dye industry, and metallurgical industry.
2. Magnesium chloride is divided into industrial grade and food grade. Industrial grade magnesium chloride is mainly used as a raw material for the electrolytic production of magnesium metal, such as for the production of magnesium metal, disinfectants, fire extinguishing agents, frozen salt water, ceramics, and for filling fabrics, papermaking, etc.; curing agent; nutrition enhancer; taste Agent (combined with magnesium sulfate, salt, calcium hydrogen phosphate, calcium sulfate, etc.).
This is the end of the introduction to the popular science of magnesium chloride knowledge brought by magnesium chloride manufacturers. I don’t know if it has answered everyone’s doubts. If you have a better idea, please contact us.
