3. Features
It is a neutral, white, tasteless and odorless product either in granular of crystal or powder. Its molecular formula is CaHPO4 2H2O with weight of 172.08. bulk density is around 750-1000kg/m3. It is easily soluble in weak acid solute such as dilutee nitric acid and dilutee acetic acid but has low solubility in cool water and solute in alcohol. It has little absorption to moisture and is normally not get lumping under normal storage conditions. It contains 2 molecules of crystal water which promotes the digestibility but shall loss when heated to above 90 C. It is reasonable ratio between phosphor and calcium contents and high purity due to its special wet process which removes most of the impurities brought by the raw material and the residual content of fluorine, arsenic, and other metals is very small.
4. Usages
As feed additive for supplemental nutriment of phosphor and calcium.
5. Packing, storage and transportation and testing
In plastic(PP) woven bag with plastic lining for 50 kg or ton bags.
Strong sunlight and rain must be avoided during transportation.
To be stored in shed, cool place with natural ventilation.
