Technical Details 
Premium Quality Calcium Chloride for Multiple IndustriesOur calcium chloride, available in powder or granule form, meets food, industrial, and laboratory standards, with a purity of up to 99%. It is carefully manufactured to ensure optimal performance in moisture control, de-icing, and specialized chemical processes. Packaged securely in HDPE or jumbo bags, it remains stable and effective for up to two years.
Applications Across Diverse SectorsCalcium chlorides unique propertieshigh solubility, strong electrolyte nature, and exothermic dissolutionmake it indispensable in industries like construction (as a concrete accelerator), food processing, and environmental control (de-icing, dust suppression). Its food-grade variant is suitable for dietary and preservation uses, while the industrial variety excels in processes requiring moisture absorption or temperature moderation.
Safe Handling and Storage GuidelinesCalcium chloride should be stored in tightly sealed containers in a cool, dry location. As it is hygroscopic and corrosive to metals, direct contact with metals and strong acids should be avoided. While non-toxic, it can cause serious eye irritation upon contact; appropriate personal protective equipment is recommended during handling.
FAQs of Calcium Chloride:
Q: How should calcium chloride be stored to maintain its quality?
A: Calcium chloride must be stored in tightly closed HDPE or jumbo bags, kept in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture absorption and clumping. Avoid contact with metals and strong acids, as it is corrosive and highly hygroscopic.
Q: What are the main uses and benefits of calcium chloride in various industries?
A: Calcium chloride is widely used for de-icing roads, controlling dust, accelerating concrete curing, food preservation, and as a refrigeration brine. Its high solubility, strong electrolytic properties, and ability to absorb moisture enhance industrial, food, and laboratory processes.
Q: When is calcium chloride most effectively applied for de-icing purposes?
A: Calcium chloride is best applied before or during snowfall to prevent ice bonding and facilitate melting at lower temperatures than traditional salts, thanks to its exothermic dissolution and hygroscopic nature.
Q: What processes are involved in the production and packing of calcium chloride?
A: Calcium chloride is typically produced by reacting limestone with hydrochloric acid or as a byproduct of the Solvay process. The final product is purified, dried, and packed in HDPE or jumbo bags (25/50 kg) to ensure stability and quality during transport and storage.
Q: Where can food-grade calcium chloride be safely used?
A: Food-grade calcium chloride is used in food processing industries for cheese making, pickling, and as a firming agent for fruits and vegetables. It meets regulatory standards for safety and purity, ensuring suitability for consumption-related applications.
Q: Is calcium chloride safe for the environment and personal use?
A: Calcium chloride is non-toxic and non-hazardous to the environment when used appropriately. However, it is corrosive to metals and can cause eye irritation, so basic protective measures are required during handling. It is stable and safe under recommended conditions.
