The Properties, Specifications, Monograph and Uses of Magnesium Carbonate:
Because of its water-insoluble, hygroscopic properties MgCO3 is added to salt to make the salt flow more freely. As a food additive magnesium carbonate is known as E504.
Magnesium Carbonate USP Grade Specifications:
Carbonic acid, magnesium salt, basic; or, Carbonic acid, magnesium salt (1:1), hydrate Magnesium carbonate, basic; or, Magnesium carbonate (1:1) hydrate [CAS 23389-33-5]. Anhydrous 84.31 [CAS 546-93-0].Magnesium Carbonate is a basic hydrated MgCO3 or a normal hydrated MgCO3. It contains the equivalent of not less than 40.0 percent and not more than 43.5 percent of magnesium oxide (MgO).
Identification: When treated with 3 N hydrochloric acid, it dissolves with effervescence, and the resulting solution responds to the tests for Magnesium.
Microbial limits: It meets the requirements of the test for absence of Escherichia coli.
Soluble salts: Mix 2.0 g with 100 mL of a mixture of equal volumes of n-propyl alcohol and water. Heat the mixture to the boiling point with constant stirring, cool to room temperature, dilute with water to 100 mL, and filter. Evaporate 50 mL of the filtrate on a steam bath to dryness, and dry at 105C for 1 hour: the weight of the residue does not exceed 10 mg (1.0%).
Acid-insoluble substances: Mix 5.0 g with 75 mL of water, add hydrochloric acid in small portions, with agitation, until no more of the material dissolves, and boil for 5 minutes. If an insoluble residue remains, filter, wash well with water until the last washing is free from chloride, and ignite: the weight of the ignited residue does not exceed 2.5 mg (0.05%).
Arsenic: The limit is 4 ppm.
Limit of calcium: the limit is 0.45%.
Heavy metals: the limit is 0.003%.
Iron: the limit is 0.02%.

Magnesium Carbonate occurs as light, white, friable masses, or as a bulky, white powder. It is a basic hydrated MgCO3 or a normal hydrated MgCO3. It is stable in air. It is practically insoluble in water, to which, however, it imparts a slightly alkaline reaction. It is insoluble in alcohol, but dissolves, with effervescence, in dilute acids.
Function: pH control; drying agent; color-retention agent; ant caking agent; carrier.REQUIREMENTS
Identification: When treated with 2.7 N hydrochloric acid, a sample dissolves with effervescence, and the resulting solution gives positive tests for Magnesium.
Assay: The equivalent of not less than 40.0% and not more than 43.5% of MgO.
