Overview
D-Calcium Pantothenate (CAS 137-08-6) is a synthetic calcium salt of pantothenic acid, produced via chemical synthesis or enzymatic resolution. It serves as the essential Vitamin B5 precursor for coenzyme A biosynthesis, characterized by high purity crystalline powder form suitable for industrial processing.
Application
- Nutraceutical Manufacturing: High-speed tablet compression lines and capsule filling machinery.
- Feed Additive Production: Extruders and pelletizers in livestock feed facilities.
- Cosmetic Processing: Emulsification reactors and homogenizers in personal care formulations.
Precautions
- Storage: Maintain below 25°C with relative humidity under 60% to prevent hygroscopic degradation.
- Handling: Avoid exposure to direct sunlight and oxidizing agents during bulk transport.
- Maintenance: Regularly inspect sealing integrity of storage silos to ensure moisture exclusion.
