Pictogram :
Magnesium turnings pose several safety hazards, primarily due to their flammability and reactivity. They can ignite easily, especially when finely divided, and can react violently with water. Proper handling, storage, and fire safety measures are crucial to prevent accidents.

Magnesium turnings are lightweight and highly reactive, making them valuable in various industries. In metallurgy, they serve as deoxidizers and are used in aluminum-magnesium alloys. In pyrotechnics, they produce brilliant white flames in flares and fireworks. They are essential in pharmaceuticals for Grignard reactions, aiding API synthesis. Additionally, they function as reducing agents in water purification and halogenated compound recycling.
