The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of alkali metal diformates, especially the potassium and / or sodium diformates in solid form, as well as in formulation with medium-chain fatty acids or their derivatives. The products which have a high content of short- and medium-chain organic acids are used in animal feeds, as acidity regulators, preservatives, silage aids and as animal growth and performance enhancers. The medium-chain fatty acid derivatives act both as an active substance and as a flow and release agent. |
