Sulfuric acid magnesium salt
Sulfuric acid magnesium salt (CAS: 7487-88-9), anhydrous magnesium sulfate, is a white crystalline inorganic salt valued for its exceptional hygroscopicity and versatility across laboratory and industrial applications. As a drying agent, it efficiently removes traces of water from organic solvents and liquids during workup procedures, making it indispensable in synthetic chemistry laboratories. In agriculture, it corrects magnesium deficiency in soils and crops, supporting chlorophyll synthesis and plant health. The food industry employs food-grade material as a firming agent and nutrient supplement, while industrial users apply it in textile dyeing, paper processing, and as a precursor for other magnesium compounds. Its high solubility, neutral pH, and low cost make magnesium sulfate a practical choice wherever a soluble magnesium source or mild desiccant is required. Consistent quality grades support reliable performance from laboratory bench to industrial scale.
– Laboratory Desiccant: Used to dry organic solvents and reaction mixtures during extraction and workup in synthetic chemistry.
– Agricultural Fertilizer: Applied as a rapidly available magnesium source correcting deficiency and enhancing chlorophyll production and crop yield.
– Food Processing: Employed as a firming agent in tofu and canned vegetables and as a magnesium nutrient supplement.
– Industrial Applications: Utilized in textile dyeing, leather processing, pulp and paper production, and as a precursor for other magnesium salts.
