Magnesium oxide boards offer replacements for gypsum-based panels, drywall, and other construction boards and panels. They are environmentally benign and boast a host of characteristics beneficial to the safety and health of homeowners and contractors. Magnesium oxide board has many attractive qualities. As highlighted earlier, it has excellent fireproof qualities, is energy efficient to produce, reduces waste, and captures carbon dioxide during production. Beyond that, the boards’ fungus resistance means they attract no rot, mildew, allergens, or mold. It’s 20 to 30 percent lighter than other cement-based boards. Contractors and DIYers find it easy to use because of its lightweight.

• Can be used in the place of traditional drywall or cement boards. No special tools required.

• Hard non-absorbent surface – using fibreglass backing – with no paper.

• Can be used in applications like cement-based siding subject to using water-proof coating systems.

• Energy efficient – magnesite calcines at approx. 780 Celsius, compared to over 1,400 Celsius required to form traditional Portland cement or calcium oxide, the starting material for the preparation of slaked lime used in common mortar and plaster.

• Magnesia boards have been mentioned in articles about biologically friendly construction and risks of mold infection.

• Comparable in cost to cement board made from Portland cement, with numerous advantages over that material for wet applications.

​

Excellent Fire resistance

The material is resistant to temperatures of 800 ° C and can withstand the effects of an open flame for up to 240 minutes when it is part of prefabricated structures. The MgO board is a noncombustible material, achieves zero smoke/flame spread. You could find many videos on the internet to show the fireproof performance of the MgO board. 

 

High Resistant to moisture

It does not deform, softens and rot under the influence of moisture or steam. Due to varying climates, disaster, and flooding mold and mildew is a common issue homeowners face. MgO is resistant to mold or mildew and does not feed mildew or mold as it contains no organic materials.

​

Good Frost resistance

The material can withstand more than 50 freeze-thaw cycles, which does not destroy it.

​

High Strength

It has good impact resistance and increased strength. Material resistant to impacts greater than 5 KJ / m2. The flexural strength is from 15 MPa to 22 MPa. Impact, shearing and overall strength of the best existing products are strong enough to pass the strictest impact, seismic and wind code in different countries. We also done a strength test in our factory.

​

Good Acoustic Insulation and Soundproofing

The material has good sound absorption and provides high sound insulation. Noise protection board 8 mm - 29 dB.

​

High Thermal insulation

It has low thermal conductivity properties - the thermal conductivity coefficient is 0.216 W / mK.

​

Constant dimensional stability

It is not affected by moisture, heat or cold. The MgO board is made of nature materials, the production process won’t creat any pollution. It also could help to creat a healthy living environment.

 

Magnesium oxide, more commonly called magnesia, is a versatile mineral that when used as part of a cement mixture and cast into thin cement panels under proper curing procedures and practices can be used in residential and commercial building construction. Some versions are suitable for a wide range of general building uses and for applications that require fire resistance, mold and mildew control, as well as sound control applications and many other benefits. As an environmentally friendly building material, magnesia board has strength and resistance due to very strong bonds between magnesium and oxygen atoms that form magnesium oxide crystals (with the chemical formula MgO).

Magnesia boards are used in place of traditional gypsum drywall as wall and ceiling covering material and sheathing. It is also used in a number of other construction applications such as fascias, soffit, shaft-liner and area separation, wall sheathing, and as tile backing (backer board) or as substrates for coatings and insulated systems such as finish systems, EIFS, and some types of stucco.
