Products Description of Magnesium sulfate anhydrous CAS#7487-88-9
Magnesium sulfate anhydrous (CAS: 7487-88-9) is an inorganic compound. The color of high-purity anhydrous magnesium sulfate is pure white. If it is an ordinary industrial-grade product, during the production and purification process, extremely trace amounts of impurities (such as iron ions or other minerals) may remain. Therefore, it may have a slightly faint grayish tint visually. It has a strong water absorption property. When exposed to the air, it will absorb moisture and gradually transform into hydrated magnesium sulfate (such as heptahydrated magnesium sulfate, which is commonly known as "diuretic salt").

Product Application of Magnesium sulfate anhydrous CAS#7487-88-9
Desiccants are one of its most classic applications. Due to their extremely strong water-absorbing ability, they are often used as drying agents in organic synthesis and laboratories, for removing trace moisture from solvents or gases. They are also used to manufacture other magnesium salts, magnesium oxide, magnesium hydroxide, etc.
In the textile industry, they are used as mordants, and in the paper industry, they are used as bleaching agents. As an additive to cement, it can improve the performance of cement.
In the agricultural field, anhydrous magnesium sulfate, as an efficient magnesium fertilizer, can replenish magnesium elements in the soil and promote photosynthesis in crops.
In medicine, magnesium sulfate can be used to treat hypomagnesemia or as a cathartic or biliary agent (usually in its hydrated form).
In the food industry, it can be used as an additive for brewing water or to regulate the mineral content of food.
