About Calcium phosphate

Calcium Phosphate is an amorphous white powder which is a calcium salt of phosphoric acid. This material is similar to the bone in composition and have an ability of bone-forming cell in grafting areas to replace it with a new bone. It is used to treat and prevent calcium deficiencies. Calcium Phosphate has a chemical formula Ca3(PO4)2 and molecular weight of 310.2 grams per mol. It is readily soluble in water and has the ability to sink with aqueous solution. This chemical is widely used in medical and dental applications in different physical forms such as cements, coatings and composites with a good chemical bonding to the bones.

Premium Quality and Safe Handling

With over 98% purity and minimal heavy metal content (<0.001%), our calcium phosphate meets high-quality standards for food, laboratory, and industrial grades. Its non-flammable nature makes it safe to transport and store. To maximize its longevity, it should be stored in tightly sealed containers, away from moisture, and used within two years for optimal efficacy.

FAQs of Calcium phosphate:

Q: How should calcium phosphate be stored to retain its quality?

A: Calcium phosphate should be kept in tightly sealed containers in a cool, dry place, away from moisture and contaminants, to preserve its integrity and efficacy throughout its two-year shelf life.

Q: What are the primary uses of food grade calcium phosphate?

A: Food grade calcium phosphate is widely used as an anticaking agent, mineral fortifier in food products, and as a stabilizer in animal feed formulations, thanks to its high purity and safety profile.

Q: When is it necessary to use laboratory or industrial grade calcium phosphate?

A: Laboratory grade calcium phosphate is ideal for analytical and research applications requiring high accuracy, while industrial grade is mainly utilized in fertilizers, ceramics manufacturing, and large-scale industrial processes.

Q: What precautions should be taken during the handling and processing of calcium phosphate powder?

A: Avoid inhalation of the fine powder, even though it is non-flammable. Use appropriate personal protective equipment, such as masks and gloves, and operate in well-ventilated areas to minimize exposure.

Q: Where does calcium phosphate provide the most benefit in pharmaceutical applications?

A: In pharmaceuticals, calcium phosphate acts as a binder and excipient in tablet production, contributing to consistent tablet formation and enhancing product stability without altering taste or odor.

Q: How does calcium phosphate function as a fertilizer additive?

A: As a fertilizer component, calcium phosphate supplies essential calcium and phosphorous nutrients to plants, supporting healthy growth and robust root development, especially in deficient soils.
