Usage: Magnesium acetate has several applications in different industries:
1. Deicer: Magnesium acetate is used on roads, runways, and sidewalks. Like other deicing agents, it helps melt ice and snow, making surfaces safer for travel.
2. Dust suppressant: Magnesium acetate can be used as a dust suppressant to control dust in industrial settings, construction sites, or unpaved roads. It helps prevent particulate matter from becoming airborne.
3. Laboratory reagent: Magnesium acetate is utilized as a laboratory reagent for various purposes. It can be involved in chemical reactions, as a source of magnesium, or as a catalyst in certain organic synthesis reactions.
4. Industrial applications: Magnesium acetate is used in industrial processes, such as textile printing, dyeing, and wastewater treatment. It assists in improving color fastness and dye adhesion and acts as a coagulant in water treatment.
Packing: Packed with a polyethylene bag as an inner layer and a compound plastic woven bag as the outer layer. The net weight of each bag is 25kg.
Storage & Transportation: Stored in a dry and ventilative warehouse, kept from heat and moisture during transportation, and unloaded with care to avoid damage. Furthermore, it must be stored separately from poisonous substances.
