Calcium levulinate dihydrate

Calcium levulinate dihydrate is a water-soluble, non-toxic, bio-based levulinate (C5) salt of calcium. Due to non-toxicity and high water solubility, calcium levulinate replaces mainstream calcium salts such as Ca(NO3)2, CaH2, Ca(OH)2, CaSO4·2H2O, CaCrO4, CaTiO3, etc.

Levulinic acid, CAS 123-76-2

It is soluble in water, chloroform, alcohol, and ether. Levulinic acid is naturally sourced from various renewable resources like rice straw, bagasse, hazelnut shell, wood, wheat straw, rice husk, and extracted from agrochemical industrial waste material.
