Calcium Lignosulfonate is an amorphous substance that is derived from lignin, which is extracted from softwood. It also finds its application as a dispersant and water reducer to improve the performance of concrete in building and construction projects. Moreover, it is also utilized as a carrier for the manufacture of encapsulated fat-soluble vitamins, carotenoids, and certain functional ingredients in various food products, such as drinks, ice creams, hard candies, and dairy products. It is also used as a binding agent in the agriculture sector to reduce soil erosion by stabilizing the soil. Additionally, it is also employed in the manufacture of bricks, ceramics, and refractory materials.
The market for Calcium Lignosulfonate is driven by its major applications in the construction industry, as a cement admixture where it acts as a water reducer to enhance concrete performance, which boosts its market expansion. Moreover, its application as an encapsulating agent for various functional ingredients and fat-soluble vitamins significantly promotes its demand in the food and beverages industry. Its extensive application as a binder for binding the soil particles together and contributing to improved soil structure, water retention, and control of soil erosion further enhances its demand in the agriculture sector.
Additionally, its usage as a ceramic additive in the manufacture of ceramics and refractory materials notably boosts its demand in the ceramics and refractory materials industries. Furthermore, several factors influence industrial calcium lignosulfonate procurement, such as the availability and cost of production of Calcium Lignosulfonate's raw materials, cost and pricing, compliance with agricultural regulations, quality standards, technological advancements, environmental considerations, sustainability practices, distribution (including trading and shipping), logistics, safety standards, etc.
Raw Material for Calcium Lignosulfonate Production
According to the Calcium Lignosulfonate manufacturing plant project report, the major raw materials for Calcium Lignosulfonate production include Softwood- Calcium Bisulfite Solution.
Manufacturing Process of Calcium Lignosulfonate
The extensive Calcium Lignosulfonate production cost report consists of the following industrial manufacturing process:
- Production from Softwood: This production process involves recombining small pieces of softwood with an acidic calcium bisulfite solution in a reaction tank for 5-6 hours at 130 degrees Celsius. In this method, the bisulfite ions react with native lignin to form sulfonated lignin or lignosulfonate, and the calcium ion balances the anionic lignosulfonate group. The calcium lignosulphonate formed is further extracted through filtration.
Calcium Lignosulfonate is a calcium salt that appears as a yellowish-brown soluble powder with the molecular formula C20H24CaO10S2. It is an electrolyte polymer with a molecular weight of 528.6 g/mol. It is often employed as a concrete superplasticizer. It is obtained from the sulfite pulping of softwood. It forms a colloidal solution when dissolved in water. It is generally insoluble in most of the organic solvents. The density of the compound is 1.2-1.3 g/cm3; however, it may vary depending on the moisture level. It has a woody odor and is generally stable under normal conditions of storage. It releases sulfur dioxide along with other gases upon decomposing at high temperatures. It can also form complexes with metal ions.
