  • Applications

    Magnesium L-methionate may be used as a chelating/sequestering agent in coatings, inks, and cleaning formulations to improve metal stabilization and formulation performance; it can also serve as a magnesium source in specialized fertilizer formulations or plant nutrition products. In materials processing, it acts as a precursor or intermediate for synthesizing magnesium-containing compounds for plastics, elastomers, and ceramics, and can function as a processing additive to enhance stability and processability of polymers. In cosmetics and personal care, it may be used as a chelating agent to help stabilize formulations.
