Calcium acetate, , 100 g
Calcium acetate is a calcium salt of acetic acid.
Application Notes
Calcium acetate is utilized in the manufacture of acetic acid and acetone. It has been used in the manufacture of metallic soaps and synthetic resins, in lubricants as a corrosion inhibitor, and as a mordant in dyeing. In biomaterials research, calcium acetate has been utilized in the development of potential bioresorbable bone graft substitutes based on poly(propylene glycolco-fumaric acid). Calcium acetate has been utilized in the crystallization of proteins, such as human annexin II and the bacterial heme oxygenase (Hmu O), and of a complex of human CDK6 with a virus-encoded cyclin.
