Calcium acetate is the acetate salt of calcium, a white to brown or gray crystal with a special odor. The common name for calcium acetate is calcium acetate. Anhydrous calcium acetate has excellent hygroscopicity, so common calcium acetate exists in the form of monohydrate (Ca (CH3COO) 2. H2O).
If alcohol is added to a saturated calcium acetate solution, it will generate a semi-solid, flammable colloid, much like canned fuel products, such as Sterno. California Snowball is actually a mixture of calcium acetate and ethanol. The resulting colloidal color is white, stacked like snowballs.

PURPOSE
1.Calcium acetate is an acetate, a commonly used chemical reagent in many organic reactions. It is the main component of vinegar, which contributes to its unique taste and aroma. It is used to synthesize dye sensitized solar cells.

2.Calcium acetate is a good food calcium fortifier with better absorption effect than inorganic calcium. Can be used in infant and toddler food, with a dosage of 3.0-6.0g/kg (calculated by elemental calcium, the same below); 1.6-3.2g/kg in grains and their products; 0.6-0.8g/kg in beverages and dairy beverages.

3.Chelating agent; Fungal suppressants; Stabilizer; Buffer; Aromatherapy agents; Preservatives; Curing agent; Nutritional fortifiers; Ph value regulator; Processing aids.

4.Used in analytical reagents, organic synthesis, printing and dyeing, and pharmaceutical industries, or as a food stabilizer, chelating agent, mold inhibitor, buffer, fragrance enhancer, and corrosion inhibitor.
