What are the differences in uses between industrial-grade calcium formate and feed-grade calcium formate? Aojin Chemical, a calcium formate supplier and manufacturer, shares the details!Industrial grade: Calcium formate is a new early strength agent
1. Various dry-mixed mortars, various concretes, wear-resistant materials, flooring industry, leather making.
The dosage of calcium formate per ton of dry-mixed mortar and concrete is about 0.5~1.0%, and the maximum addition is 2.5%. The dosage of calcium formate gradually increases with the decrease in temperature. The application of 0.3-0.5% in summer will also have a significant early strength effect.
2. It is also widely used in oil field drilling and cementing. Product characteristics accelerate the hardening speed of cement and shorten the construction period. Shorten the setting time and form early. Improve the early strength of mortar at low temperature.
Feed grade: Calcium formate is a new feed additive
1. Reduce the PH of the gastrointestinal tract, which is conducive to activating pepsinogen, making up for the lack of digestive enzymes and hydrochloric acid secretion in the piglet stomach, and improving the digestibility of feed nutrients.
2. Maintain a low PH value in the gastrointestinal tract to prevent the massive growth and reproduction of E. coli and other pathogenic bacteria, while promoting the growth of lactobacilli and preventing diarrhea associated with bacterial infection.
3. Promote the intestinal absorption of minerals during digestion, improve the energy utilization of natural metabolites, improve feed conversion rate, prevent diarrhea, dysentery, and increase the survival rate and daily weight gain rate of piglets. At the same time, calcium formate also has the effect of preventing mold and preserving freshness.
4. Enhance the palatability of feed. Adding 1.5%~2.0% calcium formate to the feed of growing piglets can increase appetite and accelerate growth rate.
