This study has examined the process of sintering of Mg0 samples (80 % precipitation) obtained from seawater at a temperature of 1600 ºC with time until the sintering temperature is obtained, in order to examine their properties (density, porosity) and chemical composition after sintering. The prepared magnesium oxide samples are distinguished by the method of treatment of the magnesium hydroxide precipitate in the technological process of obtaining magnesium oxide from seawater. The examination results indicate that the method of rinsing of the magnesium hydroxide precipitate in the technological process of obtaining magnesium oxide from seawater does not significantly affect the density and porosity of sintered samples, but it does significantly affect the chemical composition of samples, primarily with regard to the CaO and B2O3 content.
