Magnesium Chloride Hexahydrate AR 500g

Magnesium Chloride Hexahydrate AR 500g

Magnesium Chloride Hexahydrate AR (\(MgCl_2 \cdot 6H_2O\)) is a highly pure Analytical Reagent (AR), making it ideal for strict scientific research and controlled environments.

It primarily serves as a reliable, highly soluble source of magnesium (\(Mg^{2+}\)) ions. Magnesium Chloride Hexahydrate AR 500g

Primary Laboratory Uses
Molecular Biology: Frequently used as a crucial cofactor in polymerase chain reaction (PCR) buffers and to stabilise proteins or enzymes during extraction and purification processes.
Chemical Synthesis: Acts as a catalyst in various organic reactions and a reagent for analytical titrations.
Osmotic & Biological Studies: Employed to study the effects of desiccation (drying out) on bacterial viability and to formulate artificial seawater for marine biology experiments.
Industrial & Niche UsesEnergy Storage: Evaluated as an inorganic Phase Change Material (PCM) for storing thermal energy in specialised systems (like solar cookers).
Material Science: Used in combination with polymers (like PVA) to alter and improve the properties of specific films.
Food & Agriculture: Can be used as a coagulant to make tofu from soy milk and functions as a mineral supplement in fertilizers or animal feed.
