| − | A refractory cement made from of [[calcined%20magnesite|calcined magnesite]] (MgO) and [[magnesium%20chloride|magnesium chloride]]. In 1853, M.Sorel discovered a hard cement made by mixing [[zinc%20oxide|zinc oxide]] and [[zinc%20chloride|zinc chloride]]. Later in the 1870s, he patented a cement with similar properties made with the [[magnesium%20oxide|magnesium oxide]] and magnesium chloride. Also called magnesia cement, is sets quickly even under water. Sorel's cement was used for artificial stone, floor tiles, and [[stucco|stucco]].
