Food grade calcium sulfate dihydrate FPA-D is chosen to supply calcium in food industry. Containing 23% calcium, the high purity above 98% and usually around 99%, neutral pH filler, is a food and pharmaceutical grade form of calcium sulfate powder produced by grinding highly refined natural gypsum that contains about 20% crystal water. The molecular formula is CaSO4.2H2O.
