PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
Description
Magnesium oxide (MgO) is an inorganic salt compound. It is used as a dietary supplement for the treatment of constipation, indigestion and headaches. MgO is also an industrially important high temperature material used in the synthesis of bimetallic Co-Mo catalysts supporting different catalyst carriers. These catalysts are used for the synthesis of single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNT).
