Magnesium oxysulfide vs magnesium oxide: a naming and system guide
Buyers often treat magnesium oxysulfide and magnesium oxide as two names for one panel. On this site they are not. Magnesium oxide (MgO) is the oxide family name for the board and panel range, while magnesium oxysulfide (MOS) is the sulfate-family panel name for the MOS sandwich panels. This guide explains the distinction and shows how to avoid merging two specifications into one.

Two names, two product positions
The magnesium oxide panel range covers the oxide board and the oxide sandwich panels: the board page, the panel category pages, and the hybrid panels that combine a magnesium-oxide board with rock wool. The MOS panel range covers the sulfate-family sandwich panels: the handmade magnesium sulfate panel and the machine-made magnesium oxysulfide panel. The ranges overlap in material family but not in model: no single model is both a MOS model and a generic MgO model, and no model page on this site claims both names as its listed name.
The practical error to avoid is copying a figure across the names. A width, thickness, or joint listed for a MOS model is a MOS model figure, and a figure listed for an MgO panel is an MgO panel figure. The naming guide on this site states the same rule for the sulfate and oxysulfide wordings, and this blog applies it to the oxide-versus-oxysulfide pair.
How to compare the two in an inquiry
State the full model name, not just the family name: 'handmade MOS panel, Type 50' or 'machine-made MgO rock wool panel, Type 50, 1150 type', with the width, thickness, and joint. If a supplier's reply uses the other family's wording for the same panel, ask which model listing it refers to, and confirm the figures, rather than assuming the wordings are equivalent.
Before ordering, confirm the minimum order quantity and lead time for the model you select, and confirm the applicable humidity range for that model by inquiry, as no humidity figure is stated on this site. Certificates are available upon request.
