  • Chemical formula           MgHPO4.nH2O
  • Identification           .....CAS/EINECS No: 7757-86-0/231-823-5
  • Process           Magnesium phosphate is obtained by reaction of magnesium                     ..sources with purified feed grade phosphoric acid.
  • Chemical characteristics (typical)
              Total phosphorus 13 - 15%
              Soluble phosphorus:  
                        in citric acid >90%
                        in neutral amm. citrate >95%
              Magnesium 24 - 28%
              pH (1% solution) 8 - 10
              Ash insoluble in HCl 1 - 4%
              Moisture 0.3 - 1%
              Undesirable substances conform to the European Directives
