Dense Magnesium Oxide Ceramic FAQs

Q1. What is Dense Magnesium Oxide Ceramic (MgO)?

Dense Magnesium Oxide Ceramic (MgO) is a highly durable and thermally stable ceramic material primarily composed of magnesium oxide. It is characterised by its high density, hardness, and resistance to chemical attacks, making it suitable for a range of industrial applications.

Q2: Are there any limitations or considerations when using dense MgO ceramic material?

Brittleness: Like most ceramics, MgO ceramic can be brittle and may fracture under mechanical stress or impact.

Challenging Processing: Machining and shaping dense MgO ceramic can present challenges due to its hardness and brittleness.

Cost: High-purity dense MgO ceramic can be relatively expensive due to the costs associated with raw materials and processing.

Q3. How should dense MgO ceramic be handled and stored?

Handling: Handle with care to avoid mechanical damage due to brittleness. Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) to prevent inhalation of dust or skin contact.

Storage: Store in a dry, cool environment to prevent moisture absorption, which may affect the properties of the material.
