Specification:

It is an organic acid salt and is a white crystal or crystalline powder composed of 2 formate ions and 1 potassium ion. It is easily soluble in water.

Formula:

White or light yellow crystal or crystal powder, It is easily soluble in water and highly hygroscopic; it is stable under acidic conditions, and easy to decompose into formic acid and formate under neutral or slightly alkaline conditions.Potassium diformate is a non-antibiotic feed additive approved by the European Union in 2001 to replace antibiotic growth promoters. It is an ideal substitute for antibiotic growth promoters and has a good bactericidal effect on Escherichia coli and Salmonella.
                                                                                                                                  The primary reason for potassium diformate to become an alternative to antibiotics allowed by the EU is its safety and antibacterial effect, based on a simple and unique molecular structure. The main components of formic acid and potassium formate are present in nature or in the intestine of pigs, and finally (oxidized and metabolized in the liver) are decomposed into carbon dioxide and water, which can be completely biodegraded. It reduces the excretion of pathogenic bacteria and animal body nitrogen and phosphorus, and effectively purifies the animal’s growth environment.
