Magnesium Oxide (MgO) Nanopowder Main Feature
MgO has a melting point of about 2852°C (5166°F), which is significantly higher than many other materials. This high melting point makes MgO nanopowder an excellent choice for high-temperature applications, such as refractory linings in furnaces and kilns, where it can withstand extreme heat without melting or degrading. Despite its good thermal conductivity, MgO nanopowder can also act as a thermal insulator in certain applications. Its ability to prevent heat transfer is valuable in industries requiring materials that can isolate or manage heat effectively.MgO nanopowder is chemically very stable, resisting reactions with a wide range of chemicals at room temperature. This stability makes it suitable for use in environments where chemical reactivity can be a concern, such as in catalysis or as a protective coating.Being in nanopowder form, MgO presents a high surface area to volume ratio, which enhances its reactivity and effectiveness as a catalyst or adsorbent. This property is particularly beneficial in environmental applications, where MgO nanopowder is used for the adsorption of pollutants or as a catalyst in the breakdown of organic compounds.
