Storage: Store in a tightly closed container in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area; protect from moisture and contamination

Raw Material Source: Derived from naturally occurring magnesite or dolomite minerals

Manufacture: Produced through mining and purification of magnesite or by precipitation from magnesium salt solutions with sodium carbonate, followed by drying and milling

Animal Testing: Not animal tested

GMO: GMO-free (no plant-derived inputs involved)

Vegan: Does not contain animal-derived components

Proposition: NANOMINERAL MgCO₃(L) complies with relevant cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and food additive regulatory standards

Warning: Avoid inhalation of dust. Use adequate ventilation and appropriate protective equipment when handling. Avoid contact with eyes and prolonged skin exposure.

Light Magnesium Carbonate, also known as magnesium carbonate hydroxide, is a mineral compound primarily used as an antacid and laxative. It is also used in various industries, including pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and sports equipment manufacturing.

CAS Number: 39409-82-0.

INCI: Magnesium Carbonate.

Composition: Light Magnesium Carbonate is composed of magnesium, carbon, and oxygen atoms, with the chemical formula MgCO3. It may also contain hydroxide ions, depending on the method of production and hydration level.

Purity Grade: No purity grade applicable.

Appearance: Light Magnesium Carbonate typically appears as a fine white powder with a soft texture.

Solubility: Light Magnesium Carbonate is sparingly soluble in water and insoluble in alcohol. However, it can dissolve in acidic solutions due to the formation of soluble magnesium salts.

Preservation: Light Magnesium Carbonate should be stored in a tightly sealed container in a cool, dry place away from moisture and heat sources. It should also be protected from exposure to acids, which can cause decomposition.

Storage: Store in a closed container at a dry place at room temperature.

Raw Material Source: Magnesium carbonate is typically sourced from natural mineral deposits, such as magnesite or dolomite. It can also be synthesized through chemical reactions between magnesium salts and carbonate sources.

Manufacture: Light Magnesium Carbonate can be manufactured through various methods, including precipitation reactions between magnesium salts (such as magnesium sulfate or magnesium chloride) and sodium carbonate or sodium bicarbonate. The resulting precipitate is then washed, dried, and milled to produce the final product.

Animal Testing: Not animal tested.

GMO: GMO-free (does not contain plant-derived components).

Vegan: Does not contain animal-derived components.

Proposition: LIGHT MAGNESIUM CARBONATE complies with relevant regulations and guidelines.

Warning: Avoid contact with eyes. In case of contact, rinse thoroughly with water. Use appropriate protective equipment when handling. Keep out of reach of children.
