  • Applications

    Calcium di(L-lysinate) (CAS 6150-68-1) is used as a combined source of calcium and L-lysine in formulated products. In animal nutrition and feed processing it serves as a calcium-lysine supplement to support calcium nutrition and amino acid supply. In agriculture and horticulture it is evaluated as a calcium-chelated nutrient source for specialty fertilizers or foliar sprays, potentially improving calcium uptake. In cleaning, industrial, and coatings formulations it can function as a chelating agent to bind trace metals and stabilize formulations. It may also be used as an intermediate in the synthesis of lysine-derived compounds for pharmaceutical or specialty chemical applications. In cosmetics and personal care, it could be considered as a conditioning or chelating additive, subject to formulation limits and regulatory constraints.
