Product Description
Magnesium Sulfate Monohydrate is a white crystalline powder known for its high purity and stable composition. It is a widely used magnesium salt that serves as a source of both magnesium and sulfate ions in various industries. Due to its controlled hydration level, it offers better handling characteristics compared to higher hydrates like heptahydrate.
Applications
In agriculture, it is used as a magnesium-rich fertilizer that helps improve crop yield and quality by promoting chlorophyll synthesis and photosynthesis. In animal nutrition, it is applied as a feed additive to correct magnesium deficiencies in livestock. In pharmaceuticals, it is used in laxatives, magnesium supplements, and in the production of antibiotics and other magnesium-containing medicines. It is also employed in chemical synthesis, printing and dyeing processes, and in water treatment applications.
Packaging and Storage
Magnesium Sulfate Monohydrate is available in 25kg plastic woven bags, kraft paper bags, or jumbo bags, with optional PE liners. Store the product in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, protected from moisture and direct sunlight to prevent clumping or degradation.
Key Benefits
This product provides a high level of bioavailable magnesium. Its monohydrate form ensures improved storage stability and ease of transportation. With wide industry applicability and compliance with international standards, it is a reliable and versatile ingredient for multiple sectors.
