Lohtragon® O43, which is based on Calcium Nitrate 4-hydrate (CAS No. 13477-34-4), plays an essential role in the production of high-quality safety gloves, e.g. against cuts or high-voltage shocks. It facilitates the coagulation of latex during polymerization, creating a strong, uniform layer around glove molds. By using Lohtragon® O43 in multiple dips of latex emulsion, manufacturers can control the thickness of the gloves with precision. This ensures that the gloves meet strict safety requirements, making them ideal for industrial uses.
Summarized the benefits of Calcium Nitrate 4-hydrate in the field of latex polymerization are:
In emulsion polymerization, Lohtragon® O43 | Calcium Nitrate 4-hydrate serves as an efficient emulsion breaker, assisting in the recovery of polymers. It helps separate and isolate the polymers during production, reducing waste and improving material recovery. This functionality is crucial for producing high-quality polymers with optimized yields, positioning Lohtragon® O43 as a key additive in polymer manufacturing. Benefit from:
Lohtragon® O43 is an effective foliar fertilizer that provides vital nutrients for plant health. As a highly soluble, ammonia-free calcium source, it delivers approximately 17% calcium along with nitrate-based nitrogen. These nutrients promote strong plant growth, enhance nutrient absorption, and help maintain balanced soil pH levels. The nitrate nitrogen ensures quick uptake, optimizing fertilizer efficiency and reducing environmental impact. Calcium Nitrate 4-hydrate | Lohtragon® O43 is a valuable resource for crop care, boosting crop yield and overall plant vitality. Overall, our Calcium Nitrate Heptahydrate contributes to:

Our detailed product and production knowledge allows us to adapt the chemical and physical properties of our metal salts in line with their intended purpose, depending on where and how they are to be used, and to develop individual processes and solutions in collaboration with our customers. Get an idea about our extensive R&D capabilities and benefit from new developments and custom specifications.
Calcium Nitrate (Ca(NO₃)₂) is an inorganic calcium salt of nitric acid. It appears as a white, hygroscopic crystalline solid, is highly soluble in water, and has no distinct odor.
It is produced at our manufacturing facilities in Germany.
Crystalline forms (solids) are easier to store, transport with lower weight, and allow flexible preparation of solutions in different concentrations. Liquid solutions are ready-to-use, allow precise dosing, reduce dust exposure, and can be more practical in continuous or large-scale processes depending on the customer’s requirements.
Certain grades of Calcium Nitrate can meet food-contact requirements. Our experts advise on conformity with applicable regulations for food-related uses.
