General

Magnesium acetate tetrahydrate is a chemical compound with the molecular formula Mg(CH3COO)2·4H2O.

It is a white, crystalline solid that contains magnesium ions and acetate ions, along with four water molecules in its structure. This compound is often used in various industrial applications, including as a de-icer for roads and sidewalks due to its ability to lower the freezing point of water.

Additionally, magnesium acetate tetrahydrate may be employed in the preparation of magnesium-containing catalysts and as a drying agent in certain chemical processes.
