Hebei Messi Biology Co., Ltd. found in the market that many customers cannot distinguish the concepts of powdered magnesium oxide and granular magnesium oxide. As a high-end magnesium salt customization expert, today Messi Biology will briefly describe the differences between food-grade powdered magnesium oxide and granular magnesium oxide.
Generally speaking, the difference between granular magnesium oxide and powdered magnesium oxide is the appearance. There is no difference in essence. Both are magnesium oxide products that can reach medical and food grade, but the appearance and shape are different. Generally, the price of granular magnesium oxide is higher than that of powdered magnesium oxide.
Powdered magnesium oxide: also called magnesium oxide powder, generally refers to the powder form with a particle size of less than 100 mesh;
Granular magnesium oxide: From the literal meaning, we can think that the surface is granular as a whole, so it is called granular magnesium oxide, and generally the minimum is about 80 mesh.
Hebei Messi Biology Co., Ltd. stated that whether it is powder or granular magnesium oxide, they both have their own advantages. Generally speaking, powdered magnesium oxide is mainly used for dispersion. According to practical experience, the dosage is generally 2-15 mg/L. Customers can complete the powdered magnesium oxide dispersion operation according to this indicator, and it is mostly used for tablet products; and the function of granular magnesium oxide is fluidity. The larger the particles, the better the fluidity. Therefore, granular magnesium oxide is generally used in capsule filling.
