Multi-Sector Applications
Magnesium Sulfate Heptahydrate serves as a fundamental component in diverse fields.
1. Agriculture & Horticulture
Essential Magnesium Fertilizer: Magnesium is the core element of chlorophyll, vital for photosynthesis. Our product effectively corrects magnesium deficiencies in soil.
Promotes Growth & Yield: Acts as an activator for many enzymes, promoting carbohydrate metabolism and nutrient uptake, leading to healthier crops and increased yields. Field trials show that magnesium-containing fertilizers can increase crop growth by 15-50% compared to those without
Usage: Suitable for a wide range of crops including tomatoes, potatoes, roses, citrus fruits, and grains. Can be applied directly to soil or as a foliar spray.
2. Animal Feed Additive
Nutritional Supplement: Serves as an important source of bioavailable magnesium, a critical mineral for bone development, muscle function, and as a cofactor for numerous enzymatic reactions in livestock and poultry.
Ensures Health & Productivity: Prevents disorders related to magnesium deficiency, supporting overall animal health, growth rates, and feed efficiency
3. Industrial Manufacturing
A workhorse in industrial processes, its applications include:
Chemical Raw Material: Used in the production of other magnesium compounds.
Textile & Leather: Acts as a weighting agent for silk and cotton fabrics, and as a stabilizer or filler in leather tanning and finishing.
Other Industries: Finds use in the manufacture of cement (as a coagulant aid), paper pulp, fireproofing materials, ceramics, and detergents.
4. Food & Pharmaceutical Grade
Food Grade: Approved as a food fortifier, firming agent, and flavor enhancer. According to standards, it can be used in dairy products, beverages, and mineral fortified drinks within specified limits.
Brewing Industry: Used as a water hardening agent and to provide magnesium as a nutrient source for yeast, improving fermentation capacity and beer flavor.
Pharmaceutical Use: Historically and clinically used for its medicinal properties.
