Magnesium Silicate is an inorganic compound with the general formula MgSiO3, representing various silicate minerals of magnesium, such as enstatite and forsterite. Magnesium silicate is commonly encountered in both natural mineral forms and as synthetic forms for industrial uses.
Appearance: White, odorless powder or crystalline solid, depending on the specific type.
Density: Varies by type; amorphous magnesium silicate has a density around 2.5 g/cm³, while crystalline forms like forsterite may be denser.
Melting Point: High melting point around 1557°C (2835°F) for magnesium silicate minerals.
Solubility: Insoluble in water, though it can absorb significant moisture due to its porous structure.
Antacid: In medicine, magnesium silicate is used as an antacid due to its ability to neutralize stomach acid.
Food and Beverage: It is employed as an anti-caking and filtering agent in various food and beverage applications.
Pharmaceuticals: Often used as a filler and flow agent in tablet formulations and as an absorbent for liquids.
