The Hydration of Magnesium Oxide from the Vapor Phase

A systemic investigation on the hydroxylation behavior of caustic magnesia and magnesia sinter

“…CM and MS have been the focus of many investigations for over half a century and an aspect that has drawn plenty of attention is their hydroxylation (or hydration) behavior [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26]. Depending on the application aimed at, MgO hydroxylation can be either valuable or undesired and, in both cases, the knowledge of how this process occurs can be highly useful.…”

Magnesia grain size effect on in situ spinel refractory castables

“…Fast flow decay and cracking due to MgO hydration are the main problems observed during placement, setting and drying steps. [1][2][3][4] Furthermore, aspects such as MgO grain size, purity and reactivity influence not only magnesia hydration but also spinel formation.…”

Der Mechanismus der Hydratation von Magnesiumoxid mit Wasserdampf

“…RAZOUK & MIKHAIL [5] studierten die Sorption und Desorption von Wasserdampf durch Magnesiumoxid verschiedener Herstellungsart bei verschiedenen Drucken und stellten fest, dass das aus Hydroxid hergestellte Oxid sich erst bei hoheren Wasserdampfdrucken vollstandig hydratisiert als das aus Carbonat gewonnene.…”
