Improving cement workability: An appropriate dosage of calcium formate enhances the plasticity and ductility of cement, improving its processability and moldability. This makes the cement mixture easier to mix, pour, and compact.
Boosting early strength of cement: Calcium formate promotes the early hydration of cement, accelerating strength development during the initial hardening stage—allowing concrete to gain sufficient strength earlier.
It should be noted that the dosage of calcium formate must be properly controlled: excessive use will reduce the strength and durability of cement. Additionally, in cement products with specific requirements (such as sulfate-resistant cement and medical-grade cement), calcium formate can also be used as a specialized additive.
