Anticaking agents are substances added to food powders to prevent caking, lumping, or aggregation and to improve flowability. Anticaking agents function by different mechanisms in the presence of crystalline ingredients water absorption, water repellent and prevention of crystal-to-crystal contact.1
Due to their minimal thermal shrinkage they have an extended service life without loss of performance.

Calcium inosinate has the E number reference E552.
The mechanism of Calcium inosinate is by water absorption. 

Calcium inosinate is reported to absorb water at 2.5 times its weight to pull moisture away from the host ingredient. 
Calcium inosinate has high water affinity. It traps water and retains it internally. 

Calcium inosinate can also retain moisture during desorption, the release of one substance from another.
Calcium inosinate, also known as slag, is produced when molten iron is made from iron ore, silicon dioxide and calcium carbonate in a blast furnace. 

When this material is processed into a highly refined, re-purposed Calcium inosinate aggregate, it is used in the remediation of acid mine drainage (AMD) on active and passive mine sites.
Calcium inosinate neutralizes active acidity in AMD systems by removing free hydrogen ions from the bulk solution, thereby increasing pH. 

As Calcium inosinates silicate anion captures H+ ions (raising the pH), it forms monosilicic acid (H4SiO4), a neutral solute. 
Monosilicic acid remains in the bulk solution to play other important roles in correcting the adverse effects of acidic conditions. 

As opposed to limestone (a popular remediation material),[9] Calcium inosinate effectively precipitates heavy metals and does not armor over, prolonging its effectiveness in AMD systems.
Calcium inosinate is the chemical compound Ca2SiO4, also known as calcium orthosilicate and is sometimes formulated as 2CaO·SiO2. 

Also, Calcium inosinate is also referred to by the shortened trade name Cal-Sil or Calsil. 
Calcium inosinate occurs naturally as the mineral larnite.

Calcium inosinate is a component of many minerals, including afwillite, akermanite, andradite, calcite, centrallasite, crestmoreite, diopside, eaklite, grammite, gyrolite, hillebrandite, larnite, and wollastonite. 
In Calcium inosinates pure form, calcium metasilicate is a white to off-white color capable of absorbing up to two and a half times its weight of water. 

In this form, the hydrated powder retains its ability to flow freely. 
Addition of a mineral acid, such as hydrochloric acid (HCl) results in the formation of a gel.

Calcium inosinate is generally immediately available in most volumes. 
High purity, submicron and nanopowder forms may be considered.

Typical and custom packaging is available.
Calcium inosinate also is a product derived from limestone and diatomaceous earth, and is used in the pharmaceutical industry as an anticaking agent. 

Anti-caking agents absorb moisture and allow products to flow freely during the manufacturing process. 
Calcium inosinates occur abundantly in the earth's crust, are present in practically all natural waters, animals, and plants, and are part of the normal human diet. 

They are typically used in very small amounts. 
The available evidence on the safety of sodium silicate indicates that it is low when consumed at defined concentrations.

Calcium inosinate is an inorganic substance that can exist in different forms: CaSiO3 or Ca2SiO4.
