What is Calcium Propionate Feed Grade?

Calcium Propionate (CAS 4075-81-4) is the calcium salt of propionic acid. It is produced by neutralizing propionic acid with calcium compounds and is widely recognized as a safe and effective preservative in feed applications.

In animal feed, Calcium Propionate works by releasing propionic acid, which inhibits the growth of molds, yeasts, and certain bacteria. It is especially suitable for protecting high-moisture feed materials, grains, and compound feed during storage.

Compared with liquid propionic acid, Calcium Propionate offers advantages including:

• Easy handling
• Stable powder form
• Lower corrosiveness
• Convenient mixing with feed

Applications of Calcium Propionate in Animal Feed

1. Feed Mold Inhibitor
2. Grain Preservation
3. High Moisture Feed Protection
4. Animal Nutrition Applications
