PRODUCT INFORMATION
Calcium formate, the calcium salt derived from formic acid, is a versatile compound produced through the reaction of carbon monoxide and calcium hydroxide or formaldehyde with calcium compounds in an aqueous solution. This powerful additive is utilized extensively in cementitious building materials and oil emulsion processing, thanks to its beneficial aggregate properties.
Properties:Calcium formate is slightly hygroscopic with a subtle bitter taste. It is neutral, non-toxic, and water-soluble, maintaining neutrality in aqueous solutions. Its solubility remains relatively stable with temperature variations, dissolving at 16g/100g water at 0ºC and increasing slightly to 18.4g/100g water at 100ºC.
Construction/Industrial Grade Calcium Formate
In the construction industry, calcium formate acts as a rapid cement solidification agent, lubrication enhancer, and early strength facilitator. Ideal for building mortar and various concrete types, it accelerates cement hardening and reduces setting time. Particularly effective in winter, it prevents slow setting due to low temperatures and enables quick stripping for faster operational readiness. Usage adjusts with temperature, providing significant early-strength benefits even at 0.3-0.5% application during summer.
Feed Grade Calcium Formate
Calcium formate is a revolutionary feed additive that boosts livestock and poultry weight. For piglets, it enhances appetite and lowers diarrhea incidence. Including 1.5% calcium formate in post-weaning feed increases piglets' growth rate by over 12% and improves feed conversion efficiency by 4%.

APPLICATION AREA
Calcium Formate's Key Benefits in Animal Feed:
1. Inhibits bacterial growth effectively.
2. Enhances nutrient absorption.
3. Boosts growth rate significantly.
4. Improves overall feed digestibility.
Calcium formate is a revolutionary feed additive that boosts livestock and poultry weight. For piglets, it enhances appetite and lowers diarrhea incidence. Including 1.5% calcium formate in post-weaning feed increases piglets' growth rate by over 12% and improves feed conversion efficiency by 4%.
Calcium Formate's Key Functions in Fertilizers:
1. Stabilizes biofilm structures and maintains cell integrity.
2. Prevents premature aging in plants.
3. Reinforces cell wall stability.
4. Extends storage periods effectively.
Widespread Use of Calcium Formate in Construction:
Calcium formate serves as an excellent cement quick-setting agent, lubrication enhancer, and early strength promoter. It accelerates cement hardening, shortens setting times, and is particularly beneficial in winter construction by preventing slow setting in low temperatures. This accelerant significantly improves cement strength, facilitating rapid work progress.
Perfect Accelerator for Cement-Based Dry Mortars.
Dosage: In dry mortar and concrete, use 0.5-1.0% per ton, with a maximum amount of 2.8%. The colder the temperature, the more you need to add. Even in summer, adding as little as 0.2-0.5% will significantly enhance early strength. The key advantage is that it does not corrode steel or pollute the environment.
Cementation of oil drilling.
Additives for petroleum and natural gas exploration, especially for well completion or cementation of oil drilling.
Calcium formate is crucial in the leather industry, serving as a masking agent in the chrome-tanning process.
Adding calcium formate to tannage formulations accelerates and enhances chrome penetration in leather. It can also replace formic acid during the pickling process.
Industry grade calcium formate:
compound fertilizers, leather
tanning, adhesives & glues, dyestuffs, pigments
