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.

The manufacturer tells you the dispersing effect of sodium hexametaphosphate

The dispersing effect of sodium hexametaphosphate is due to its hydrolyzed anions adsorbed on the particle surface. In order to improve the dispersing effect, the hydrolysis degree of the dispersant can be selectively increased. It is believed that we all know that the function of dispersant is to increase the distance between the large particles to be dispersed in the solution and reduce the viscosity of the whole solution. However, the amount of   sodium hexametaphosphate   used in the dispersion of different substances is also different. In the process of material dispersion, the surface of large particles adsorbs the dispersant to form a double electric layer, and anions are closely adsorbed on the surface of particles, which is called surface ions. Ions with opposite charges in the medium are called anti ions. In the process of medium movement, particles and particles, as well as the electric double layer and the electric double layer have the same charge, which will generate elec

Non-antibiotic growth promoter potassium diformate helps pig industry return to its essence

  The high profitability of the pig industry will not last, and the future development of the industry still needs to return to the essence of pig raising. The non-antibiotic growth-promoting agent   potassium diformate  helps return to the essence of breeding and helps control the cost and quality of the pig industry. Biosecurity has become the access condition of today's pig industry. Potassium diformate has the following functions and functions to return the essence of pig farming to the breeding industry: (1) Adjust the palatability of feed and increase animal feed intake. (2) Improve the environment of the animal's digestive tract and lower the pH of the stomach and small intestine. (3) It has anti-bacterial and growth-promoting effects. The addition of potassium diformate can significantly reduce the content of anaerobic bacteria, Lactobacillus, Escherichia coli and Salmonella in each segment of the digestive tract. Improve the resistance of animals to diseases and reduce

The factory tells you food grade sodium tripolyphosphate/STPP requires heavy metal purification

Condiments, meat products, edible oil, dairy products, drinks, etc. are all necessities of daily life. Some food additives will be used in the production and processing process. The use of additives also makes people more concerned about "safety on the tip of the tongue".  Sodium tripolyphosphate/STPP  is widely used in food additives. Chongqing Chuandong Chemical Group will show you the main applications of sodium tripolyphosphate/STPP in the food industry: 1. Food grade sodium tripolyphosphate is used in meat products, fish sausage, ham, etc., which can improve the water holding capacity, increase the cohesiveness and prevent fat oxidation; 2. For fruit drinks and cool drinks, it can improve the juice yield, increase the viscosity and inhibit the decomposition of vitamin C. 3. It can prevent discoloration, increase viscosity, shorten fermentation period and adjust taste when used in soybean paste and soy sauce. 4. For ice cream, it can improve the expansion capacity, increa
