Calcium Acetate | Lohtragon® O01 is acting as a complexing agent in lubricants during the saponification of calcium complex greases. Its unique morphology makes it an essential thickening agent in specialized grease formulations. The key benefits of Calcium Acetate in lubricants are:
Lohtragon® O01 based on Calcium Acetate (CAS No. 62-54-4) is also used in polymer applications as an acid scavenger in Polyoxymethylene (POM) and serves as a precipitation and coagulation agent in emulsion polymerization, thanks to its specific pH and solubility characteristics.
For cement formulations, Lohtragon® O01 acts as a hardening accelerator in construction chemicals, allowing precise control over the setting speed, which is crucial for cost-efficient and effective application. Testing has shown that Calcium Acetate in cement formulations offers a highly efficient adjustment of setting time, particularly in cold weather conditions.
Lohtragon® O01 provides a reliable Calcium source for foliar fertilizers in the field of crop care, offering a neutral pH that prevents damage to plants. It is ideal for use in nutrient mixtures and works well with other fertilizers that might be more acidic.
