| Product Name | Calcium formate |
| CAS No. | 544-17-2 |
| Molecular Formula | C2H2CaO4 |
| Structural Formula | ![]() ![]() |
| Molecular Weight | 130.11 |
| Appearance | White crystals |
| Purity(GC) | 98% |
| Package | 25kg/bag |
| Application | Calcium formate is mainly used as an animal feed preservative. It acidifies the feed thus preventing microbe growth and increasing shelf life. About 15 g of calcium formate addition per kg of feed lowers its pH by one. 15 g/kg is the maximum recommended feed concentration within the EU – this level is thought to be safe for pigs, chickens, fish, and ruminants. The compound is not environmentally harmful in feed use at these levels. |
