Epsom Salt - Epsom Salts- Magnesium Sulfate (Heptahydrate) - MgSO4-8 lb - Safety Sealed Resealable PP Container, Removeable/Re-Attachable Handle, Microwave Safe (Remove foil Seal), Freezer Safe

Epsom Salt (or Epsom Salts) is known as Magnesium Sulfate or Magnesium Sulfate Heptahydrate.Not a dangerous substance according to the Globally Harmonized System (GHS).Epsom Salt is a hydrated salt with seven molecules of water, so caking or bridging can occur.Shipped to you in a safety sealed HDPE container with a resealable lid and a removable handle. USES:Cosmetic: Used in hair care products such as hair wave neutralizer solutions and in hair "densifier" products.Soaps: Used to prevent shrinking and crackingDetergents: Used as a viscosity control agent and a foam stabilizer and densifier. Also used as an anti-caking agent.Fermentation: Used as the magnesium ion source in yeast and antibiotic production.Fuel: Used as a sulfate ion source, sulfur and magnesiium based conditioner.Agricultural: Used to correct magnesium deficiency in crops and animal feed. Commonly applied to magnesium-hungry plants or potted plants.Medicinal: Used as an analgesic soaking agent for bruises and sprains.Water Treatment: Used as a hardener, removal of heavy metals.Steel: Used as a salt bath for brightening and zinc plating.Leather Processing: Used as a weighting agent.Other Miscellaneous: photographic solutions, artificial snow, magnesium stearate, magnesium sulfonate
