Magnesium chloride is These salts are typical ionic halides, being highly soluble in water. The hydrated magnesium chloride can be extracted from brine or seawater. In North America, magnesium chloride is produced primarily from Great Salt Lake brine. Anhydrous magnesium chloride is the principal precursor to magnesium metal, which is produced on a large scale. Hydrated magnesium chloride is the form most readily available.
Applications
A precursor to Mg metal
MgCl2 is the main precursor to metallic magnesium. The conversion is effected by electrolysis:
MgCl2 → Mg + Cl2
This process is practiced on a substantial scale.
Dust and erosion control
Magnesium chloride is one of many substances used for dust control, soil stabilization, and wind erosion mitigation. When magnesium chloride is applied to roads and bare soil areas, both positive and negative performance issues occur which are related to many application factors.
Catalyst support
Ziegler-Natta catalysts used commercially to produce polyolefins, contain MgCl2 as catalyst support. The introduction of MgCl2 supports increases the activity of traditional catalysts and allowed the development of highly stereospecific catalysts for the production of polypropylene.
Magnesium chloride is used for low-temperature de-icing of highways, sidewalks, and parking lots. When highways are treacherous due to icy conditions, magnesium chloride helps to prevent the ice bond, allowing snow plows to clear the roads more efficiently.
