𝐶𝑎𝐶𝑙2⋅2𝐻2𝑂
). It is primarily used for industrial de-icing, dust control, road stabilization, concrete acceleration, and as a drying agent.
Key Details and Applications:
- Forms: White flakes or powder.
- Industrial Uses: De-icing roads, dust control on gravel roads, concrete early-strength agent, drilling mud additive, and wastewater treatment.
- Chemical Properties: Highly hygroscopic; releases heat when dissolved in water.
- Food/Industrial Grade: Often used for food-grade applications like firming agents (canning) or in industrial settings for refrigeration brines.
- Safety & Handling: Causes severe eye and skin irritation. It is harmful if ingested, potentially causing mouth/throat burns and stomach pain.Calcium Chloride 74%
