Calcium Nitrate Tetrahydrate 98%

Calcium Nitrate Tetrahydrate 98% (Ca(NO₃)₂·4H₂O) is a highly soluble, inorganic salt composed of calcium and nitrate ions. It typically appears as white to colorless crystalline granules or powder and is strongly hygroscopic, meaning it readily absorbs moisture from the air and may become liquid upon exposure to humidity.

This compound is widely used as a fertilizer and nutrient source, supplying both calcium and nitrogen, which are essential for plant growth. It is also used in wastewater treatment, concrete admixtures, explosives manufacturing, and laboratory applications.

Calcium nitrate tetrahydrate dissolves easily in water, producing a neutral to slightly alkaline solution. Due to its oxidizing nature, it can enhance combustion of other materials and should be handled with care.

The product with ~98% purity is commonly used in industrial and agricultural applications, where consistent composition and high solubility are required.
