What are the requirements for the storage of magnesium hydroxide?

Magnesium hydroxide alias caustic magnesite, light burned magnesia, etc., is a white powder material, is also a new type of filling type flame retardant. By releasing bound water during thermal decomposition and absorbing a large amount of latent heat, the surface temperature of the synthetic material filled with it in the flame is reduced, which has the effect of inhibiting the decomposition of the polymer and cooling the combustible gas generated. However, magnesium hydroxide has certain requirements during storage. The following is a brief introduction to how magnesium hydroxide should be stored. 1. The environment is relatively basic. It is necessary to adhere to the monotony and ventilation of the storage environment, together with the need to lay a layer of plastic film between the product and the ground.

However, magnesium hydroxide has certain requirements during storage. The following is a brief introduction to how magnesium hydroxide should be stored.
1. The environment is relatively basic. It is necessary to adhere to the monotony and ventilation of the storage environment, and a plastic film needs to be laid between the product and the ground to isolate water vapor.
2. Packaging to do a good job of sealing. Open the used ones and seal them in time.
3. Place lime blocks to prevent moisture after palletizing. This is another way to avoid moisture absorption of magnesium oxide and reduce activity.
4. Because calcium oxide has a stronger moisture absorption, calcium oxide is placed in the warehouse as a moisture reducing agent to reduce the humidity of the warehouse, which is very useful.
5. Magnesium hydroxide has a shelf life. Therefore, do not pile up too much at one time, because even if the moisture-proof method is done well, magnesium hydroxide will inevitably change in the long term.
The above is the storage method of magnesium hydroxide, hoping to be helpful to everyone. If you have any other questions about magnesium hydroxide, please feel free to contact us for advice!

Zhongke Flame Retardant Organization Watches 20 Closing Ceremonies

On the morning of October 22, 2022, members of Zhongke Flame Retardant New Materials Co., Ltd. watched the closing ceremony of the 20th Congress under the leadership of General Manager Wang Ligui.

What are the reasons for the failure of flame retardant after adding aluminum hydroxide flame retardant?

Everyone knows that there are two common flame retardants. Today we are going to talk about only one of them. Aluminum hydroxide flame retardant is an environmentally friendly halogen-free flame retardant, which can be widely used in fabrics, wood, plastics, and rubber., Polyurethane and other industries have ideal flame retardant effect. In the process of industrial application, it is found that flame retardant failure occurs when aluminum hydroxide flame retardant is added. The following are the reasons for the failure of aluminum hydroxide flame retardant, how to prevent it, how to deal with the operation, and restore the original function.

As a flame retardant, magnesium hydroxide also need to improve what aspects?

When it comes to flame retardants, everyone is familiar with them. Although we usually have less contact with them, we can know what they are used for from the name. Have to talk about magnesium hydroxide, we all know that its main presentation state is a granular, at present, the market sales of magnesium hydroxide particle size is larger, part of the commodity particle size up to tens of microns, immediately used as a flame retardant, poor dispersion, the physical properties of raw materials greater harm. In industrial production, physical grinding methods are generally used to reduce the particle size to 1 micron. The surface of magnesium hydroxide has high polarity and is easy to agglomerate. As the compatibility of refractory materials and polymer substrates, it not only reduces its flame retardant grade, but also causes more serious harm to the physical properties of raw materials.
