What are the precautions for using magnesium hydroxide?
Magnesium hydroxide is a new type of flame retardant, and it also has a great contribution to environmental protection, that is, it can be used as a flue gas desulfurizer. Especially in some rubber products and plastic products, by reducing the surface temperature, it can have a very good flame retardant effect.
Magnesium hydroxide as a chemical material, we also need to pay attention to the use of magnesium hydroxide in the process, so as to avoid the harm caused by illegal use and operation. Here are a few points for attention to tell you what magnesium hydroxide should pay attention to in the use process.
1. Avoid touching the skin.
Magnesium hydroxide is a kind of strongly alkaline raw material, which has great irritation to human skin, eyes and hands when used, so certain protective measures should be taken in the process of use and manufacturing. for example, equipment such as goggles, gloves and protective clothing is mainly to prevent magnesium hydroxide from touching the skin directly, if magnesium hydroxide is accidentally exposed to the surface skin. Do not panic, at this time to immediately use water for a lot of washing, so as to wash off the magnesium hydroxide powder attached to the surface.
If you already have a feeling of discomfort, you should see a doctor immediately or consult your doctor to deal with it. If you want to take medicine, you should also ask your doctor for advice or advice.
2. Make according to strict standards.
Magnesium hydroxide in contact with other chemicals and production must be prepared in accordance with strict proportion requirements, and the trial of magnesium hydroxide should pay attention to understand its relevant physical and chemical properties. Avoid contact with other chemicals that should not be exposed to, which can lead to dangerous chemical reactions.
In a word, we must pay attention to our own safety when using magnesium hydroxide, and we must have enough knowledge and understanding of magnesium hydroxide in order to correctly use it to create greater value for us.
