Bulk densities
Depending on the grain size, the bulk density of a powder varies
considerably, depending on how large the voids between the individual
particles of the product are.
Because of our various procedural possibilities, we can offer Magnesium Carbonate and Magnesium Oxide in a wide range of bulk densities.
The large surface of more than 50qm/g makes our very light materials (60g/l) to an ideal raw material for chemical syntheses. Medium bulk densities show a lower dust formation. On the other hand, very heavy materials with a bulk density of up to 600g/l are used as flowing agents for more sensitive products like ammonium carbonate.
Heavy or light types – we offer them all in our portfolio
