USES and APPLICATIONS of CALSIUM FORMIATE:
-Calcium formiate is white crystal with excellent fluidity, which is often used as an setting-Accelerator in mortar. 
-In dry-mixed mortar products, such as thermal insulation mortar, tile adhesive, cement-based plaster, repair mortar, etc, in order to improve the early strength, high-alumina cement and gypsum are usually used as coagulant, (at low temperature, calcium formiate is also necessary to add antifreeze ).


-Calcium formiate has a dual role as a new type of setting-Accelerator , which can accelerate the hardening speed of cement, improve the early strength, and avoid the slow setting speed of mortar in winter construction or low temperature and humidity so that the mortar can be put into use as early as possible, especially contributing to the early strength.
-Calcium formiate is a kind of setting-Accelerator that can accelerates concrete/mortar coagulation and hardening.


-Calcium formiate can shorten the initial setting time.
-Calcium formiate can normallzies the cement/mortar retardation under low temperature conditions.

Depending on the dosage of Calcium Formiate, Calcium formiate also can strongly modify the initial workability of the wet mortar.


-Calcium formiate is mainly used in construction mortar and various concretes to speed up the hardening speed of cement and shorten the setting time, especially in winter construction, to avoid slow setting speed at low temperature. 
The demoulding is fast, so that the cement can be put into use as soon as possible.


-Leather Tanning:
Calcium formiate is used extensively in the leather industry as a masking agent in the chrome-tanning process.
The addition of calcium formiate to the tannage formulation promotes faster, more efficient penetration of the chrome in the leather. 
Calcium formiate can also be used as a replacement for formic acid in the pickling operation.


-Cement Additive:
As an additive to grouts and cement, Calcium formiate imparts a number of properties desirable in the final product, e.g. increased hardness and decreased setting time in comparison to ordinary cements.

Calcium formiate is also effective in the prevention of efflorescence. 
When used in gypsum board, Calcium formiate functions as a fire retardant.

Calcium formiate is commonly used as a component of an ensiling agent for silage treatment. 
The use of Calcium formiate in the silage suppresses the formation of side reaction products such as propionic acid, while promoting the formation of desirable lactic acid in anaerobic fermentation.


-Gas Generation:
A mixture of Calcium formiate with ammonium nitrate or with chlorate, perchlorate, peroxide, superoxide or permanganate of an alkali metal will rapidly evolve large volumes of gas when ignited. 
Because the released gases are cool, non-poisonous and non-irritating, they could be used for the inflation of automobile passenger restraint bags or other similar applications.


-Flue-gas Desulfurization:
SOx is abated in the flue-gases from the burning of high-sulfur fuel oil if the oil has been emulsified with a solution containing calcium formiate before burning. As much as 95% of the SOx is removed.

-Animal Feed Additive:
Calcium formiate is an organic salt suitable for use in pig and poultry diets.
Calcium formiate acts as a feedstock preservative and has an acidifying effect on the gastro-intestinal tract, which promotes good gut-health. 
The efficiency of pig and poultry feedstock digestion is dependent on the indigenous micro-organism concentration in the gastro-intestinal tract. 
With the approaching ban on the use of prophylactic antibiotics in animal feed as a means to control disease and promote growth, alternatives are needed to limit the proliferation of pathogenic bacteria in the gut which can impair feedstock digestion as well as cause enteric diseases such as E Coli and Salmonella. 
Acidifiers such as calcium formiate preserve the feedstock before consumption and lower the pH in the gastro-intestinal tract, creating unfavourable conditions for these bacteria to grow.

PRODUCTION of CALSIUM FORMIATE:
Calcium formiate is formed as a co-product during trimethylolpropane production. 
Hydrated lime (calcium hydroxide) is used as the source of calcium. 
Butyraldehyde and formaldehyde react in a water solution in the presence of a basic catalyst, forming an unstable intermediate product, dimethylol butyraldehyde (DIMBA). 
DIMBA reacts further with formaldehyde to give trimethylolpropane and calcium formiate. 

Calcium formiate is separated from the solution, heat treated to remove formaldehyde and then dried.
Calcium formiate can also be made from calcium hydroxide and carbon monoxide at high pressure and temperature – e.g., at 180 °C and 35 atm.
Calcium formiate may also be made from calcium chloride and formic acid.


CHEMICAL REACTIONS of CALSIUM FORMIATE:
Calcium formiate can be used to prepare solutions of other water-soluble formiate salts. 
For example, the addition of nickel (II) sulfate to a solution of calcium formiate results in the precipitation of insoluble calcium sulfate, leaving nickel (II) formiate in solution:
Ca(OOCH)2 + NiSO1 → CaSO4 + Ni(OOCH)2

In a similar reaction, sulfuric acid reacts with calcium formiate to provide low-cost solutions of formic acid:
Ca(OOCH)2 + H2 SO4 → CaSO4 + 2HCOOH

When heated, calcium formiate decomposes to calcium carbonate and formaldehyde:
Ca(OOCH)2 → CaCO3 + HCHO

Continued heating at higher temperatures results in the breakdown of these decomposition products:
HCHO → CO + H2
CaCO3 → CaO + CO2

Calcium formiate can be used as a low-cost reducing agent in the conversion of carboxylic acids to aldehydes.
This process is an effective substitute for the troublesome Rosenmund reduction.
(RCOO)2Ca + (HCOO)2CA → 2RCH + 2CaCO


ADDITION RATES of CALSIUM FORMIATE:
Dosage rates will be dependent on mix design, process, types of materials and the desired effect but typically:
500gms – 2000gms per 100 kg cement
(0.50% – 2.00% by weight of cement)
It is advisable to carry out preliminary tests to establish the correct dosage for the application.
