Advantages of potassium diformate, CAS No:20642-05-1


Potassium dicarboxylate is a growth promoting additive and is widely used in pig feed.

Pig Feed additive

It has more than 20 years of application history in the EU and more than 10 years in China

Its advantages are as follows:

1) With the prohibition of antibiotic resistance in the past two years, the research on additives in feed plants has been gradually deepened. Acidifiers have now become recognized as anti-bacterial and growth promoting agents. Among them, formic acid products are recognized as bacteriostatic acid and intestinal acid, with the best anti-bacterial effect.

2) In the past two years, the industry has carried out a cost reduction and efficiency increase campaign, and the additives have also started to select the products with the best cost performance ratio, and acidifiers are no exception. Among the formic acid products, potassium dicarboxylate has the best palatability, the best slow-release effect, the highest content and the highest cost performance ratio.

3) Originally, the cost and price of potassium diformate were high, and the use of feed plants was limited. With the optimization of production process and the release of production capacity, the current price of potassium dicarboxylate is lower and the cost performance ratio is higher
