It is widely used in high temperature refractory materials, and is widely used in optics, instrumentation, electronics, electrical appliances, metallurgy, aerospace and other fields.

In the existing technology, the preparation methods of high purity magnesium oxide are mainly: (1) using the rich magnesium mineral resources in northeast China, calcined into ordinary magnesium oxide, then hydrolyzed to produce magnesium hydroxide, and then filtered, washed, pyrolyzed to obtain high purity magnesium oxide. In this method, the magnesium hydroxide slurry is difficult to be separated and washed, resulting in high impurity content in the product. (2) Prepare magnesium oxide by first preparing magnesium chloride or magnesium sulfate and then pyrolyzing, the high temperature corrosive gas produced in this method, the equipment requirements are high. (3) Through the ammonium carbonate cycle method, the preparation of basic magnesium carbonate, further calcination to produce high-purity magnesium oxide, the method of higher purity but the cost is too high.
