Calcium Nitrate is available in two forms: tetrahydrate and anhydrous. Depending on the application area, you can supply the most suitable Calcium Nitrate from our company.

It is generally used as a component in fertilizers, but it also has other applications. The combination of hydrate with calcium nitrate forms nitrocalcite. This results in efflorescence when the fertilizer comes into contact with concrete or limestone in dry environments such as barns or caves. There are many substances that form various salts when combined with calcium nitrate.
