Caustic Calcined Magnesite Powder

Fine powder produced by calcining natural magnesite at moderate temperatures to yield reactive magnesium oxide with some residual CO2. Classified under HTS 2519.90.20.00 as caustic calcined magnesite, distinct from dead-burned or fused magnesia due to its lower sintering temperature and higher reactivity.

Reactive Caustic Magnesite 90% MgO

Lightly calcined magnesite powder with 90% MgO content, used primarily in fertilizer production and acid neutralization. Falls under HTS 2519.90.20.00 because it's produced from natural magnesite via caustic calcination, retaining reactivity characteristics.

Greek Caustic Calcined Magnesite Lumps

Lump form caustic calcined magnesite from Grecian deposits, partially calcined for steelmaking slag conditioning. HTS 2519.90.20.00 applies as it's 'other' magnesium oxide from natural magnesite via caustic process, not fused or fully sintered.

Turkish CCM Grade A Caustic Magnesite

Premium Turkish caustic calcined magnesite meeting CCM Grade A specs for rubber and plastics reinforcement. Classified HTS 2519.90.20.00 due to production via controlled low-temperature calcination of high-purity magnesite.

High Reactivity Caustic Magnesite for Animal Feed

Specially calcined magnesite providing bioavailable magnesium for livestock supplements. HTS 2519.90.20.00 because it's caustic calcined natural magnesite meeting feed-grade purity without pharmaceutical processing.
