Magnesium nitrate

Magnesium nitrate, also known as magnesium dinitrate or Magniosan, is an inorganic salt formed from magnesium and nitric acid. It carries no assigned E-code and is commercially identified under CAS 10377-60-3. It is available in both anhydrous and hexahydrate forms depending on application requirements.

In agriculture, magnesium nitrate serves as a dual-nutrient fertiliser, delivering both nitrate nitrogen and magnesium directly to crops through foliar or fertigation systems. In water treatment, it functions as a pH-buffering agent, helping to stabilise alkalinity in process streams. Textile and paper processors use it as a hygroscopic additive to control moisture retention during finishing operations.

This product is supplied in technical and agricultural grades, with REACH-compliant documentation available for European procurement.
