Application
• Calcium nitrate is used in set accelerating concrete admixtures and oil well cement.
• Using Calcium Nitrate with either concrete or mortar is based on two effects.
• The calcium ion accelerates the formation of calcium hydroxide and thus precipitation and setting.
• It is often used in the oil and gas industry for the “re-greening” of oil well locations.
