Dicalcium Phosphate DCP Feed Additive

Product Description

Feed grade Dicalcium phosphate 18% is an excellent mineral additive for poultry and livestock feed containing phosphorus and calcium. It is a feed additive used to supplement the calcium and phosphorus nutrition of livestock and aquatic animals. It has the characteristics of high water solubility and high absorption rate. Suitable for livestock, poultry, aquatic products, and other animals.

The main varieties of feed phosphate are tricalcium phosphate (TCP), dicalcium phosphate (DCP), mono calcium phosphate (MCP), mono-dicalcium phosphate (MDCP), followed by a small amount of disodium hydrogen phosphate, ammonium dihydrogen phosphate, diammonium hydrogen phosphate, urea phosphate and so on.

Dicalcium phosphate is used in feed processing as phosphorus and calcium supplements. Because the ratio of phosphorus to calcium is closest to that of animal bones, and it can be dissolved in animal stomach acid, it can easily enter the animal’s body to participate in its metabolism, and maintaining the ratio of phosphorus to calcium in bones can promote the rapid growth of the animal body. Accelerate the growth and development of livestock and poultry, shorten the fattening period, and rapid weight gain. It can improve the breeding rate and survival rate of livestock and poultry, enhance the ability of livestock and poultry to resist disease and cold, and prevent and treat chondrosis and paralysis in livestock and poultry. Phosphorus is the basic element in all cells and cell membranes, it is involved in the structural substances that make up living cells, and it forms the skeleton of DNA and RNA molecules. It is present in its outer and inner layers in the form of phosphate. Phosphate plays a vital role in the daily energy exchange of the cell. It is involved in the synthesis and degradation of almost all important organic substances. High-energy phosphate compounds, on the other hand, play an extremely important role in the release, storage, and utilization of energy. In animals, calcium and phosphorus are found in small amounts but play a very important role in maintaining the body’s normal function.

Feed calcium phosphate is an important component of the feed industry, where phosphorus is an important element in the metabolism and maintenance of physiological functions in the animal organism. Calcium is an important component of the composition of bones and teeth, it promotes blood circulation, maintains nerve conduction performance under the activation of certain enzymes in the body, plays an important role in regulating muscle stretch, and normal osmotic pressure of capillaries, acid-base balance in the body. In the world, feed calcium hydrogen phosphate is widely promoted and used. Feed grade calcium hydrogen phosphate is now internationally recognized as one of the best feed mineral additives. Adding 1%-3% of the total feed to animal feed, the average increase in meat, eggs, and milk yield of livestock by 15%-20%, the economic benefits are very significant.
