Calcium hypophosphite is an inorganic compound with the formula Ca(H2PO2)2. It appears as a white crystal-like powder in nature. Calcium hypophosphite is naturally found in bovine milk. It is soluble in water having a solubility of 16.7g/100g (water). Calcium hypophosphite gets decomposed when heated and results in the formation of phosphine (a flammable gas). It consists of high calcium composition due to which it is widely used in the poultry industry to help birds that do not have enough calcium and phosphorous nutrients. It is widely used as preservative in food industries, owing to its antioxidant property. It can become explosive when mixed with potassium chlorate and grounded with quartz. It is widely used for manufacturing of different medicines in pharmaceutical industries to treat diseases such as lack of calcium, increased osteoporosis, decreased activity of parathyroid gland, and bone loss. It is used as a major calcium supplement for ostocalcium-based nutrients. It finds its application in different industrial purposes such as electroplating, chemical operations, and coating.
COVID-19 Scenario Analysis
Rise in demand for calcium-based medicines during the pandemic to boost immunity of individuals accelerate growth of the calcium hypophosphite market. In addition, increase in chemical operations such as electroplating and coating, where calcium hypophosphite is used extensively propels growth of the calcium hypophosphite market. However, explosive nature of calcium hypophosphite when mixed with other compounds such as quartz causes problems during its handling and storage. This, in turn, hampers growth of the calcium hypophosphite market. Moreover, lack of vitamin D among children of under developed countries such as Somalia, South Sudan, Yemen, and Bangladesh, where calcium hypophosphite is used to boost nutrition, creates new opportunities for growth of the calcium hypophosphite market. In addition, rise in older population where lack of vitamin D may cause severe health disorders is also expected to create lucrative opportunities for growth of the calcium hypophosphite market during the forecast period.
