Calcium palmitate, also known as calcium salt of palmitic acid, is a rumen-protected fat supplement used primarily in animal feed applications. It is commonly employed in dairy and livestock diets to boost energy density without disrupting normal rumen fermentation, supporting milk production and body condition in high-producing dairy cattle. Additionally, it serves as a lubricant and processing aid in industrial and chemical manufacturing formulations requiring a stable calcium soap. Calcium palmitate is also utilized in specialty feed formulations designed for transition and high-performance livestock diets. Furthermore, it finds applications in general chemical manufacturing processes requiring a fatty acid calcium salt.
