Chemical Overview

Magnesium dihydroxide is a magnesium hydroxide in which the magnesium atom is bound to two hydroxide groups. It has a role as an antacid and a flame retardant. The CIR Expert Panel concluded that … Magnesium Hydroxide is safe in hair straighteners and depilatories under conditions of recommended use; users should minimize skin contact.  These ingredients are safe for all other present practices of use and concentration described in this safety assessment when formulated to be nonirritating. Magnesium hydroxide is an inorganic compound. It is naturally found as the mineral brucite. Magnesium hydroxide can be used as an antacid or a laxative in either an oral liquid suspension or chewable tablet form. Additionally, magnesium hydroxide has smoke suppressing and flame retardant properties and is thus used commercially as a fire retardant. It can also be used topically as a deodorant or for the relief of canker sores (aphthous ulcers).
