CALCIUM FORMATE
Calcium methanoate, with the molecular formula Ca(HCOO)2 and a molecular weight of 130.0, is a white or slightly yellow powder or crystal that is non-toxic and has a slightly bitter taste. It is insoluble in alcohol but soluble in water, with the resulting solution being neutral in pH. The solubility of Calcium Formate does not vary significantly with changes in temperature, with a solubility of 16 g/100 g water at 0℃ and 18.4 g/100 g water at 100℃. However, it decomposes upon heating to 400℃. Overall, Calcium Formate is a useful and safe compound with a variety of applications in various industries.

Usage:
Calcium methanoate can be used as a sour agent instead of citric acid and fumaric acid, as well as a substitute for calcium propionate as a preservative and mold inhibitor. It is suitable for use in various animal feed and has functions such as preventing diarrhea and assisting feed digestion and absorption. It is also widely used in industrial production such as food, chemical, building materials, leather, and petroleum. Adding it to cement can accelerate its hardening speed and shorten the setting time. Calcium formate can also be made into oral agents to treat calcium deficiency in the human body. Most calcium supplements on the market are made from it. It is also an ideal growth regulator for crops. This article highlights the positive aspects and benefits of calcium formate without any negative content.
