Calcium Carbonate

Calcium Carbonate is a chemical compound with the formula CCaCO3. It is a common substance commonly found in natural rocks and Calcium carbonate is the active ingredient in agricultural lime and is created when calciumions in hard water react with carbonate ions to create lime scale. Feed Grade Calcium Carbonate is non-toxic and easily available with a wide range of applications. Our Calcium Carbonate is high purity material mainly focused on fulfilling the calcium deficiency in animals. Calcium carbonate is a dietary supplement used when the amount of calcium taken in the diet is not enough. Calcium is needed by the body for healthy bones, muscles, nervous system, and heart. Calcium carbonate also is used as an antacid to relieve heartburn, acid indigestion, and upset stomach. High-purity calcium carbonate, with low levels of acid-insoluble compounds, is an essential feed element for domestic livestock including cattle, sheep, and camels, and
promotes bone growth. Adding calcium carbonate orally to their diet can lead to

  • Stronger ossification and more milk, as well as increase
  • Their resistance to disease
  • Make it easier for them to digest fed.

Properties

  • It is poorly soluble in water (when dissolved in water with carbon dioxide, it turns into calcium acid carbonate,i.e.: calcium
  • bicarbonate),
  • Calcium carbonate decomposes upon heating – it then releases calcium oxide and
  • Carbon dioxide (the thermal decomposition of calcium carbonate and the calcination of calcium carbonate are possible at
  • temperatures above 800°C),

It reacts with acids (for example the combination of calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid results in a violent release of
carbon dioxide).
