Product Description

1. Product Overview

Sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3), commonly known as baking soda, is a white crystalline powder with no odor and a slightly salty taste. As a feed additive, it primarily helps regulate acid-base balance in animals, improves digestion, and enhances feed utilization efficiency.

2. Specifications

  • Chemical Name: Sodium Bicarbonate
  • Molecular Formula: NaHCO3
  • Purity: ≥99%
  • Appearance: Fine white crystalline powder
  • Solubility: Highly soluble in water (weak alkaline solution, pH ~8.4)
  • Packaging: 25kg or 50kg/bag, moisture-proof lined

3. Key Benefits & Functions

Acid-Base Balance Regulation: Neutralizes stomach acid and prevents metabolic acidosis (e.g., rumen acidosis in dairy cows). Maintains stable blood and body fluid pH levels.
Digestive Health Improvement: Stimulates gastric acid secretion for better protein and fiber digestion. Reduces heat stress in poultry and livestock.
Performance Enhancement:
• Layers: Improves eggshell thickness.
• Broilers/Pigs: Boosts weight gain and FCR.
• Ruminants: Optimizes rumen fermentation and increases milk yield.

4. Recommended Dosage

Animal Dosage (per ton of feed) Special Use
Layers 1-3 kg Eggshell quality
Broilers/Ducks 1-2 kg Heat stress relief
Swine 2-5 kg Growth promotion
Dairy Cows 100-200 g/head/day Acidosis prevention
Aquafeed 0.5-1.5 kg Water pH adjustment

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What is the main function of sodium bicarbonate in animal feed?
It primarily acts as an acid-base regulator, neutralizing excess stomach or rumen acid to prevent acidosis and improve overall digestive efficiency.
Q2: How does this product help poultry during hot weather?
It helps relieve heat stress by maintaining proper electrolyte balance and blood pH levels, which often fluctuate during high-temperature periods.
Q3: Can sodium bicarbonate improve egg quality?
Yes, for laying hens, it is known to improve eggshell thickness and significantly reduce the incidence of broken eggs.
Q4: What are the storage requirements for this feed grade powder?
It should be kept in a sealed container and stored in a dry, ventilated, and shady environment to prevent moisture absorption and clumping.
Q5: Is there any risk of overdose?
Overdosing may lead to alkalosis or diarrhea, particularly in poultry. It is important to follow the recommended dosage of 1-5kg per ton of feed depending on the animal type.
Q6: Are there any compatibility issues with other additives?
Direct mixing with acidic compounds, such as Vitamin C or organic acids, should be avoided as they can react and neutralize each other.
