Admixtures are specialized chemical additives used in concrete and mortar to enhance performance, workability, and durability. Admixtures enable precise control over concrete behavior, allowing for low-water mixes, faster construction, or extended workability in challenging conditions. They also support sustainable practices by reducing cement content and improving longevity. From high-strength structures to decorative finishes, admixtures provide tailored solutions for modern construction needs while meeting quality and efficiency demands.

Calcium Formate

$ 1.00
Calcium Formate is the calcium salt of formic acid, appearing as a white, free-flowing crystalline powder or granules. It is an odorless compound with a slightly bitter taste and is non-toxic. The chemical formula is Ca(HCOO)₂ with a molecular weight of 130.0 g/mol. Calcium Formate is slightly hygroscopic and readily soluble in water, with solubility of approximately 16.1 g/100 mL at 20°C. Its water solution is neutral with a pH of 6.0 to 8.0. The compound is stable under normal storage conditions and has a decomposition temperature exceeding 400°C. Technical grade Calcium Formate is manufactured for industrial applications including construction, animal feed, leather processing, and water treatment.

Calcium stearate

Calcium Stearate is a metallic stearate salt, appearing as a fine, white, hydrophobic powder. It is produced through the reaction of stearic acid (a fatty acid derived from natural oils and fats) with calcium oxide or calcium hydroxide. It functions primarily as an acid scavenger, lubricant, release agent, and stabilizer across multiple industrial sectors. Its unique combination of water repellency, low solubility, and high melting point makes it an essential processing additive in plastics, rubber, construction, and paper industries. Technical grade Calcium Stearate is manufactured for industrial performance applications and is not intended for direct food, pharmaceutical, or cosmetic use unless specifically certified and labeled for those applications.

Calcium Sulphate Dihydrate

 Calcium Sulphate Dihydrate, commonly known as gypsum, is a naturally occurring mineral widely used in agriculture, construction, and various industrial processes. It appears as a white or slightly translucent crystalline powder with moderate solubility in water. The compound is primarily used as a soil conditioner to improve soil structure and supply calcium and sulfur nutrients essential for plant growth. It also finds applications in the manufacture of plaster, cement, and as a filler in various products.
