What is the color of calcium formate when dissolved in water?

 Calcium formate is a compound that is easily soluble in water, and its aqueous solution is colorless and transparent. It is also determined by quality. If the by-product acid is used to produce calcium formate, it will be turbid and yellow, and even have many impurities, and it will not be completely dissolved.


Physical and chemical properties of calcium formate: slightly hygroscopic, slightly bitter taste. Neutral, non-toxic, soluble in water. The aqueous solution is neutral. The solubility of calcium formate does not change much with the increase of temperature, 16g/100g water at 0℃, and 18.4g/100g water at 100℃. Specific gravity: 2.023 (20°C), bulk density 900-1000g/L. The thermal decomposition temperature is 400°C.


Calcium formate is also widely used in industry and feed additives due to its physical and chemical properties. For example, the high-quality calcium formate produced by Chuandong Chemical Group is produced with genuine formic acid, with high calcium content, clear aqueous solution, and low heavy metal content.


Calcium formate is used as a new feed additive. Everyone knows that feeding calcium formate increases weight. In fact, calcium formate is also a good feed acidifier. It can also increase appetite and reduce diarrhea rate for weaned piglets. Adding 1% to 1.5% in the piglet's diet, calcium formate can significantly improve the performance of weaned piglets.


Calcium formate can be used in construction. It is used as a fast setting agent, lubricant and early strength agent for cement. Used in construction mortar and various concretes to accelerate the hardening speed of cement and shorten the setting time. Especially in winter construction, avoid too slow condensing speed at low temperature. The demoulding is fast, so that the cement can be put into use as soon as possible.


Dosage of calcium formate and precautions: The dosage per ton of dry mortar and concrete is about 0.5~1.0%, and the maximum addition amount is 2.5%. The amount of calcium formate is gradually increased with the decrease of temperature. Even if the amount of 0.3-0.5% is applied in summer, it will have an obvious early-strength effect.

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
