Product Description
Calcium formate is a white crystalline powder.
It is also known as Calcium formate, C2H204Ca, used as a feed additive, suitable for all kinds of animals, has the effects of acidification, mildew, anti-bacteria, etc., also used in the industry for concrete, mortar additives, leather tanning or as a preservative use.
Calcium formate is a traditional raw material, that has been widely used in all walks of life, of which the application of industrial grade calcium formate and feed grade calcium formate is very typical, today we will look at the application and specific role of industrial grade calcium formate.
Speaking of industrial-grade calcium formate, most of it is used in the production of industrial concrete, the production of new dry mix mortar, construction wear-resistant materials, the epoxy floor industry, and the leather manufacturing industry, which almost all use industrial-grade calcium formate, some as raw materials, and some as additives to use.
Application
The role of calcium formate in dry mixed mortar:
In the production process of dry mixed mortar, calcium formate needs to be added by a certain proportion, and the usual addition proportion is 0.5-2.5%, depending on the function of dry mixed mortar. In addition, the use of calcium formate and climate temperature is related, the lower the temperature, the higher the amount of calcium formate added, to maintain the strengthening effect of dry mixed mortar at various temperatures.
Role of calcium formate in cement:
To improve the hardening speed of cement, it is also necessary to add a certain amount of calcium formate in cement manufacturing or construction. Especially in northern construction or winter construction, the speed of cement setting is slow, affecting the efficiency of construction, and the addition of calcium formate can improve the setting efficiency of cement so that cement products can improve their strength as soon as possible.
The addition of calcium formate in cement can not only improve the early strength effect of cement, but also has no corrosion effect on the steel bars used in construction, and will not affect the lightness and durability of the steel bars, so it is an important additive for cement and other building materials.
Calcium formate also has a large role in oilfield operations and industrial drilling:
The use of calcium formate in construction operations can greatly speed up the hardening of cement, and the wellhead can be quickly dried firmly, which not only reduces the construction period but also improves work efficiency and improves the operation safety system. The early strength of mortar at low temperatures can be improved especially in the north.
Calcium formate as feed additives:
Calcium formate as a feed additive can promote appetite and reduce the diarrhea rate of piglets. Adding 1% ~ 1.5% calcium formate to the diet of piglets can significantly improve the performance of weaned piglets.
It is important to note that calcium formate use is effective before and after weaning because the piglets' secretion of hydrochloric acid increases with age.
