Calcium nitrate (calcic saltpeter, calcium nitrate)

Calcium nitrate (calcic saltpeter, calcium nitrate) — inorganic salt of nitric acid. Calcium nitrate (calcic saltpeter, calcium nitrate) — inorganic salt of nitric acid. Calcium nitrate (calcic saltpeter, calcium nitrate) — inorganic salt of nitric acid.
The granulated, anhydrous calcium nitrate, is applied as additive in concrete, as fertilizer, for preparation of brine in refrigerating equipment, in production of reactants, fibreglasses. Calcic saltpeter is the physiological alkaline fertilizer suitable for all soils and first of all for the acidified soils. In agriculture apply as nitrogen fertilizer.
Calcium nitrate of technical quality possesses properties which allow
to use it:
1) as the curing accelerator;
2) for long - term increase of strength characteristics of concrete;
3) as the anode decelerator of corrosion processes of reinforcing steel in concrete;
Completely enters chemical changes from cementomas and does not cause the subsequent
vysoloobrazovaniye, at capillary water suction.
● Increases the impact strength and durability by break for road concrete.
● Reduces concrete istirayemost (pavings and elements of paving).
● Condenses concrete.
● Increases durability of finished product by compression by 1,5 - 2 times.
● Increases durability set speed at early age. Rasformovka is possible in 12 - 18 hours. Allows to use low - branded cements and
blast furnace slag cement.
● Works as the decelerator of processes of corrosion of the steel placed in concrete.
