| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Chemical Properties]
Calcium bicarbonate is obtained by dissolving calcium carbonate in carbon dioxide aqueous solution, easily soluble in water, unstable, and decomposed by heating to form stalactite or scale. | [Uses]
It can be used as calcium fortifier, emulsion stabilizer, dough conditioner, nutritional supplement, buffer, bulking agent, surface improver, emulsifier, curing agent, antioxidant synergist, and stabilizer. | [Synthesis]
When calcium carbonate encounters carbon dioxide and water, chemical attack occurs, resulting in soluble calcium bicarbonate:
CaCO3+CO2+H2O=Ca(HCO3)2 |
