Magnesium oxide

MAGNESIUM OXIDE "STARMAG®"

"STARMAG" is Konoshima's light-burned Magnesium oxide produced from natural raw materials, seawater and limestone.
It is the highest quality products with fine particles by our particle control technology. We can offer various grades for diverse applications.

STARMAG #150

high-reactive grade mainly used for vulcanizing agent for chloroprene rubber.

STARMAG M・P

middle/low-reactive grades mainly used for compounding agent or chemical raw material.

STARMAG PSF-150

High-reactive grade with fine particles.
It has higher purity and whiteness than other grades

STARMAG G

Granular grade with easy handling and good workability.

STARMAG CX-150

high-reactive grade with surface coating to improve dispersibility in polymer and less adherent on mixing roller.
