lcium nitrate Calcium Nitrate is colorless transparent monoclinic crystal. It is soluble in water and alcohol.It is easily deliquesce in the air.
Application of Calcium Nitrate
- As a flocculant for rubber emulsion, oil exploration wells, sewage treatment, etc.
- In agriculture, as fertilizer for soilless cultivation, acidic soil and quick calcium supplementation for plants.
- Light industry, to make fireworks and incandescent lampshades, as analytical reagents and fireworks materials.
- The defense industry, to make explosives.
- The electronic instrument industry, to coat the cathode. It is a raw material for the manufacture of other nitrates.
The Application in Agriculture
Agricultural calcium nitrate is a typical quick-acting foliar fertilizer, which can act on acidic soil more smoothly, and the calcium in the fertilizer can neutralize the acidity in the soil.
It has the characteristics of quickly supplementing calcium and nitrogen. Its unique combination of nitrate nitrogen and 100% water soluble calcium provides many properties and benefits not found in other fertilizers. It is one of the valuable fertilizers in the market. Each crystal of calcium nitrate evenly contains 11.5% nitrogen (nitrate) and 23.0% water-soluble calcium (CaO), which is conducive to the absorption of nutrients by crops, enhances the stress resistance of fruits and vegetables, promotes early maturity, and improves the quality of fruits and vegetables.
- Calcium nitrate is widely used in base application, topdressing, washing and foliar spraying in agriculture. And as nutrient solution for soilless cultivation.
- It is rich in calcium ions, continuous application will not only make the physical properties of the soil worse, but also improve the physical properties of the soil.
- Calcium nitrate is suitable for sugar beet, potato, barley, hemp and other crops. And calcium itrate is widely used in various soils, especially the acidic soil lacking calcium, the effect will be better.
Storage: Sealed tightly, no mix with organic matter and sulfur, avoid moisture, rain and insolation.
