We all know that feed grade calcium formate can not only supplement calcium, but what is its acidification effect?

 Judging from the market of feed grade calcium formate in the past six months, feed grade calcium formate is increasingly favored by the market and farmers. The calcium content of high-quality feed grade calcium formate like Chuandong Chemical Group can reach 31%, and the calcium supplement effect has been good. The feed grade calcium formate has another function, stabilizing the pH value in the animal's gastrointestinal tract, that is, it can also have an acidification effect. So how does it work?


First of all, calcium formate is not formic acid, it is a calcium salt containing formic acid. The function of feed grade calcium formate is mainly realized by the formic acid decomposed in the stomach environment, and its function is similar to that of potassium diformate.


(1) Feed grade calcium formate can reduce the pH of the intestines, at the same time it is beneficial to activate pepsinogen, make up for the insufficient secretion of digestive enzymes and hydrochloric acid in the organism's stomach, and improve the digestibility of feed nutrients.

(2) As an organic acid, formic acid acts as a chelating agent during the digestion process and can promote the absorption of minerals in the intestine.


Calcium formate has a high melting point, which can be decomposed at a temperature above 400°C and has high stability. The granulation process is not easily damaged.


As an acidulant, calcium formate does not deliquesce in the feed production process compared with citric acid. It has good fluidity and neutral pH, which will not cause equipment corrosion. Although the acidity of citric acid is not strong, it may still corrode various tools and equipment during long-term use, and further research is needed for preventive measures.


Adding calcium formate to the feed, the acidification effect depends on the release of trace amounts of formic acid in the animal body, which reduces the pH value of the gastrointestinal tract and has a buffering effect. Conducive to stable pH in the gastrointestinal tract, thereby inhibiting the reproduction of harmful bacteria. Promote the growth of beneficial microorganisms, such as the growth of Lactobacillus. It can cover the intestinal mucosa from the invasion of toxins, so as to control and prevent bacteria-related diarrhea and diarrhea.


Feed grade calcium formate can reduce the amount of acidulant and inorganic calcium, and is an acidulant that can supplement calcium. The production quality is better when using positive acid production.

What role will industrial grade sodium hexametaphosphate manufacturers play in the future coating industry?

图片
The keyword in 2019 is environmental protection and safety. In 2020, environmental protection and safety hurricanes will be more violent. In the manufacturing industry, whether it's packaging, printing, furniture, shipping industry or the phosphate raw material manufacturing enterprises like Chongqing Chuandong Chemical Group that produce  industrial grade sodium hexametaphosphate , it's a good choice to withstand the environmental storm and the obvious environmental protection conditions of the enterprise itself. Take the paint industry for example, the current paint market can be found that although the domestic paint industry has achieved rapid development and formed a certain industry scale, but in the domestic high-end paint market, the domestic paint brands or enterprises are indeed few, and the domestic high-end paint market is still occupied by most of the market share of imported brands. In fact, all industries need to use coatings, and environmental protection coating

What is the use of calcium formate industrial grade in construction? The manufacturer tells you

  With the development of the city's economy, the construction of highways, bridges, tunnels, and civil construction projects will require stricter use of early strength agents. Especially in winter, in order to improve the construction period, the cement mortar needs to be raised as soon as possible and put into use.   Calcium formate industrial grade   is a good early strength agent. Although both calcium formate and calcium chloride are calcium salts, relatively speaking, the performance of calcium formate is more stable. Because the formic acid in calcium formate is a weak acid. The solution will be weakly alkaline during the hydrolysis in the aqueous solution. It can be widely used in mortar. Calcium formate industrial grade is now a newly developed low temperature early strength accelerator in China, which has been widely used in various construction cement mortars. The earliest known and used chlorine salt early strength agent in construction, but the chloride salt early str

The effect of calcium supplement with feed grade calcium formate is good when crops are short of calcium

  Is it true that crops also need calcium supplements? it is true. Crops are plants, like humans and animals, that need rich trace elements to help them grow. When crops are calcium-deficient, plant growth is hindered, and the internodes are shorter, so they are generally shorter than normal plants and have soft tissues. Since calcium has such a big effect, is it good to use   feed grade calcium formate   to supplement calcium? The meristems such as the apical buds, lateral buds, and root tips of crops with calcium-deficient plants first appear nutrient deficiency, which is perishable, the young leaves are curled and deformed, and the leaf edges begin to turn yellow and become necrotic. For example, calcium deficiency can cause leaf scorch disease in cabbage, cabbage and lettuce; tomato, pepper, watermelon, etc. have heart rot; apples have bitter pox and water heart disease. No matter how much is useless, the crops are short of calcium. If we want to achieve the actual effect, what sho
