Application
1 Calcium formate is an organic salt suitable for use in pig and poultry diets. It acts as a feedstock preservative and has an acidifying effect on the gastro-intestinal tract, which promotes good gut-health. As an animal feed preservative, calcium formate acidities the feed thus preventing microbe growth and increasing shelf life. Calcium formate prevents the growth of bacteria and fungi.
2 Calcium formate is used as a masking agent in the chrome tanning of leather. Calcium formate in tannage formulation promotes faster, more efficient leather penetration of the chrome. Calcium formate can also be used as a replacement for formic acid in the pickling operation.
3 As a grout and cement additive, calcium formate imparts a number of desirable properties in the final products, e.g. increased hardness and decreased setting time. Its addition is desirable for work at low temperature and for inhibition of corrosion of metal substrates. It is also effective in the prevention of efflorescence. In drywall, calcium formate can function as a fire retardant.
4 Calcium formate and urea mixtures are effective deicers, and tend to cause less corrosion of steel and cement surfaces relative to some other deicers.
