Preparation of magnesium-containing dispersions from magnesium carboxylates at low carboxylate stoichiometry

摘要

This invention relates to stable, fluid magnesium-containing dispersions and the preparations thereof by the high temperature decomposition of Magnesium salts of carboxylic acids to MgO in a dispersant-containing fluid, where less than a stoichiometric amount of carboxylic acid is employed in forming the magnesium carboxylates, based on Mg(OH)2 or equivalent.
