Calcium-magnesium phosphate

 

  • Chemical formula           (Ca, Mg)PO4.nH2O
  • Identification           .....CAS/EINECS No: 25618-23-9/247-131-1
  • Process           Calcium-magnesium phosphate is a chemical complex of mono-                    ..dicalcium phosphate and magnesium phosphate. Calcium-                              ..magnesium phosphate is produced by means of reaction of a                     ..calcium source and magnesium oxide with purified feed grade phosphoric acid.
  • Chemical characteristics (typical)
              Total phosphorus 18%
              Soluble phosphorus:  
                        in 2% citric acid >95%
                        in neutral amm. citrate >95%
              Calcium 15%
              Magnesium 9%
              pH (1% solution) 5
              Insoluble in HCl 1%
              Moisture 2%
              Undesirable substances conform to the European Directives
  • Physical properties (typical)
              Appearance Appearance granulated
    colour off white
              Apparent density loose 0.85 kg/dm3
  • Handling, storage, toxicity
              Handling avoid dust formation
              Storage no special precautions
              Shelf life minimum 3 years
              Toxicity non toxic
  • Specific advantages
