Calcium formate Main Applications
This product is mainly used in construction mortar and various concretes to accelerate cement hydration and shorten setting time. Especially in winter construction, it prevents delayed setting and mold release issues, enabling cement products to reach usable strength quickly.
Calcium formate Recommended Dosage
The dosage per ton of mortar or concrete is about 0.5% ~ 1% of the cement weight, with a maximum of 2.5%. The dosage increases as the temperature decreases. Even in summer, using 0.3% ~ 0.5% will produce obvious early-strength effects.
