Calcium formate is the calcium salt of formic acid. It is also known as E238. Under this E number it is used as an animal feed preservative within the EU, but not in foods intended for people.
Calcium formate is stable at room temperature, is inflammable, and forms orthorhombic crystals. The mineral form is very rare and called formicaite, and is known from a few boron deposits.

uses
Calcium formate is used as a masking agent in the chrome tanning of leather. Calcium formate in tannage formulation promotes faster, more efficient leather penetration of the chrome. Calcium formate can also be used as a replacement for formic acid in the pickling operation.
As a grout and cement additive, calcium formate imparts a number of desirable properties in the final product, e.g. increased hardness and decreased setting time. Its addition is desirable for work at low temperatures and for inhibition of corrosion of metal substrates within cement/grout. It is also effective in the prevention of efflorescence. In drywall (gypsum board), calcium formate can function as a fire retardant.
Calcium formate and urea mixtures are effective deicers and tend to cause less corrosion of steel and cement surfaces relative to some other deicers.
