Calcium citrate tetrahydrate Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Calcium citrate tetrahydrate is white powder

Uses

Calcium citrate tetrahydrate is mainly used for Calcium supplements.

Uses

In foods as calcium fortifier; as anticaking agent in dry mixes.

Uses

Calcium citrate tetrahydrate may be used as raw material in the preparation of nanoparticle with the nominal composition Ca0.8 Ba0.2 Ti03 :Pr3+, via sol-gel process. It may be employed as carbon source in a simple and effective carbonization method to prepare porous carbon without any activation process. It is suitable for use in the preparation of bovine serum albumin (BSA) nanoparticles.
