Calcium Lactate Granules with good Flowability For Calcium Supplementation Dietary Supplement Tablets

What is Calcium Lactate Granules?

Calcium lactate, molecular formula C6H10CaO6·nH2O (n=0-5), is currently commonly found as calcium lactate pentahydrate, with a theoretical calcium content of 13.0%. It is white granules or powder, has the smell of lactic acid fermentation, and is easily weathered in the air.

Calcium lactate is soluble in water, with a solubility of about 8g/100mL at room temperature. It is easily soluble in hot water, and the solution is clear and transparent. As an organic calcium salt, calcium lactate has a high bioavailability and high human tolerance. When fortifying beverages, it is easy to obtain a stable and clear solution, and the flavor is mild, so it is widely used in the beverage industry as a nutritional supplement and buffer.

In addition, calcium lactate can also be used in fruit and vegetable processing, compound seasonings, candies, solid beverages, jellies, and puffed foods as an acidity regulator, antioxidant, emulsifier, stabilizer, coagulant, and thickener. In addition to ordinary foods, calcium lactate can also be used in health foods. In the pharmaceutical industry, calcium lactate can be used to prevent and treat calcium deficiency.

Calcium lactate granules are a calcium salt of lactic acid that comes in granular form, known for its excellent flowability. This feature makes it ideal for use in various industrial and food applications where ease of handling and uniformity in mixing are important. The granular form also allows for better dispersibility and consistency in formulations.

Characteristics of Calcium Lactate Granules

1. Good Flowability: One of the key features is its ability to flow smoothly, making it easy to handle during manufacturing and mixing processes. This reduces clumping and ensures more uniform distribution in products.

2. High Purity: Food-grade calcium lactate granules typically have low levels of impurities, including heavy metals such as lead and arsenic, making them safe for food and pharmaceutical applications.

3. Water Solubility: It is moderately soluble in water, making it suitable for liquid formulations or products requiring solubility in aqueous solutions.

4. Neutral Taste: Calcium lactate granules typically have a neutral taste, making them easier to incorporate into food products without altering flavor.

5. Stable Formulation: It is chemically stable, which ensures that it retains its calcium content and efficacy over a long shelf life.

Applications of Calcium Lactate Granules

1. Food Industry:

• Fortified Foods and Beverages: Calcium lactate granules are commonly added to fortified juices, dairy products, and plant-based alternatives to boost calcium content without impacting taste or texture.

• Processed Foods: Used in products such as baked goods, desserts, and snacks to enhance nutritional value and improve texture.

• Pickling and Canning: It is used as a firming agent in the processing of fruits and vegetables, ensuring they retain their shape and texture during preservation.

2. Pharmaceuticals:

• Calcium Supplements: Due to its high bioavailability and ease of digestion, calcium lactate is used in tablet or powder form as a supplement for individuals with calcium deficiencies or those needing additional calcium intake.

• Effervescent Tablets: Its good solubility and flowability make it ideal for use in effervescent tablets, offering a fast-dissolving calcium source.

3. Cosmetics and Personal Care Products:

• Used in certain cosmetic formulations as a buffering agent or to enhance product stability and texture.

4. Health and Wellness Products:

• Added to wellness drinks, powders, and protein shakes to provide an additional source of calcium.
