| Liming Value and Sodium Absorption Ratio
In addition to providing a highly soluble source of silicon,
Calcium Silicate Corporation products provide a good soluble
source of calcium. As illustrated by its Calcium Carbonate Equivalent
in comparison to other calcium bearing products, CSC products
also have a good ability to reduce salt toxicity in turf as indicated
by its sodium absorption ratio (SAR).
