Abstract

The influence of relative air moisture, temperature, and concentration of carbon dioxide on the carbonation of magnesium oxide and hydroxide have been studied in normal climatic conditions. The MgO and Mg(OH)2 used for this original work are pure granular materials. The different species that appear during the process of carbonation and the most stable form in usual conditions of storage were identified. Moreover, the study of the different climatic factors showed that the carbonation is never complete even after a prolonged exposure.Key words: carbonation, magnesium oxide, magnesium hydroxide, storage, climatic conditions.
