Calcium Oxalate (in archaic terminology, oxalate of lime) is a chemical compound that forms envelope-shaped crystals, known in plants as raphides. A major constituent of human kidney stones, the chemical is also found in beerstone, a scale that forms on containers used in breweries. Its chemical formula is CaC2O4 or Ca(COO)2. For industrial and commercial purposes, sourcing from a trusted Calcium Oxalate Manufacturer ensures high-quality and pure material suitable for various applications.
Calcium Oxalate is a high-purity inorganic compound widely used in food, pharmaceutical, and industrial applications. Known for its stability, safety, and cost-effectiveness, it is supplied in both food-grade and industrial-grade forms for B2B use.
