Magnesium carbonate is mainly used as an improver in the production of flour. In the formula of flour improver, food-grade magnesium carbonate is a very important raw material component, which can play a very large auxiliary role, greatly improve the fluidity and dispersibility of flour improver, and act as an anti-caking loosening agent . Generally, the content of food-grade magnesium carbonate in it can be in the range of 10%-15%, and it must be ensured that it has good fluidity. The content of magnesium oxide in food grade magnesium carbonate is between 40%-43%, the apparent volume is between 1.4-2.5ml/g, and the water content is less than 1%. In addition, food-grade magnesium carbonate also plays a great role in other industries such as cosmetics, medicine, and food.
Magnesium carbonate is mainly used in industries such as cosmetics, medicine, food and flour improver. Compared with ordinary magnesium carbonate, the preparation method of food-grade magnesium carbonate is roughly the same, the difference is that there are stricter requirements on the index requirements of raw materials and the degree of purification in the production process. Secondly, there are also differences in production equipment. The production scale of food-grade magnesium carbonate is usually relatively small, and the output is not high, but the added value of food-grade magnesium carbonate is very high, and it also has good economic benefits.
