Magnesium chips and granules

Magnesium chips, also known as magnesium turnings, and granules are produced by mechanically processing standard-purity (99.8% Mg) or high-purity (99.95% Mg) magnesium ingots. The process can be adjusted to produce magnesium chips and granules that meet different shape, size, and surface area requirements.
