Wholesale Calcium Nitrate Supplier, Factories

Calcium nitrate is easily soluble in water, methanol, ethanol, pentanol and liquid ammonia, and is easy to deliquesce in air. It can improve soil structure, maintain acid-base balance,control salt concentration,and be used as anhydrous cultivation,pollution-free vegetable,fruit,flower and tree cultivation in agriculture,and as quick acting fertilizer in acid soil in agriculture.

Product Description

Introduction

Calcium nitrate is an inorganic compound that is a white crystalline powder with two crystal forms. It is soluble in water, liquid ammonia, acetone, methanol and ethanol, but insoluble in concentrated nitric acid.

Calcium nitrate has a wide range of applications in several fields. In the electronics industry, it is used to coat cathodes. In agriculture, calcium nitrate is used as a fast-acting fertiliser for acidic soils and as a rapid plant calcium supplement, and is particularly effective for regenerative fertilisation of winter crops, post-additional fertilisation of cereals, and additional fertilisation to eliminate plant calcium nutrient deficiencies. In addition, calcium nitrate is used as an analytical reagent and pyrotechnic material, and as a raw material for the manufacture of other nitrates.

Safety Warning:

Calcium nitrate reacts with bases to form nitrates and calcium salts. However, it should be noted that calcium nitrate is irritating to human skin and eyes, so protective gear should be worn during handling. Accidental ingestion of Calcium Nitrate may cause discomfort in the mouth, throat and stomach, so you should rinse your mouth immediately and seek medical attention. In addition, mixing calcium nitrate with organic substances, reducing agents, flammable substances, etc. may cause fire or explosion, so special attention should be paid to safety during storage and use.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the primary physical properties of Calcium Nitrate?
Calcium Nitrate is an inorganic compound existing as a white crystalline powder. It features two crystal forms and is highly soluble in water, liquid ammonia, acetone, methanol, and ethanol, while remaining insoluble in concentrated nitric acid.
How is Calcium Nitrate used in agriculture?
In agricultural sectors, it serves as a fast-acting fertilizer designed for acidic soils and provides a rapid plant calcium supplement. It is highly effective for the regenerative fertilization of winter crops, post-additional fertilization of cereals, and addressing plant calcium deficiencies.
What industrial applications does Calcium Nitrate have?
Beyond agriculture, it is used in the electronics industry to coat cathodes, as an analytical reagent, a component in pyrotechnics, and as an essential raw material for manufacturing other nitrate compounds.
Are there safety precautions when handling Calcium Nitrate?
Yes. Calcium Nitrate is irritating to the skin and eyes, requiring operators to wear appropriate protective gear. If accidentally ingested, rinse the mouth immediately and seek medical attention.
What are the storage requirements for Calcium Nitrate?
Calcium Nitrate must be stored away from organic substances, reducing agents, and flammable materials, as mixing with these substances presents a fire or explosion risk. Keep containers tightly closed in a cool, dry place.
What packaging options are typically available?
It is commonly packaged in plastic woven bags or paper-plastic composite bags with an inner plastic lining. Standard net weights include 25kg, 50kg, and large Jumbo bags.
