· MgWO4

Magnesium tungstate (MgWO4) is an inorganic ceramic compound composed of magnesium and tungstate ions, typically employed in high-temperature and optical applications where chemical stability and thermal resistance are required. It is used primarily in scintillation detectors, X-ray phosphors, and specialized refractory applications where its thermal stability and radiation absorption properties provide advantages over conventional oxides. The material is also of interest in research contexts for photoluminescence and sensing applications, though it remains less common than broader ceramic families like alumina or zirconia in mainstream engineering.

Regulatory Screening

Environmental

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
