Magnesium oxychloride (MgClO) is an inorganic ceramic compound belonging to the oxychloride cement family, formed through the reaction of magnesium oxide with magnesium chloride. While primarily known in research and experimental contexts rather than mature commercial applications, MgClO and related oxychloride ceramics are investigated for use in advanced binding systems, refractory materials, and specialized composite matrices due to their potential for room-temperature curing and good adhesive properties. This material family represents an alternative to Portland cement in niche applications where conventional binders are unsuitable, though industrial adoption remains limited compared to established ceramic and cementitious alternatives.
