Calcium Chloride Dihydrate

 

Calcium chloride with crystalline water is mainly calcium chloride dihydrate, whose chemical formula is CaC12-2H2o. This calcium chloride with two crystalline glasses of water is a white or gray chemical, mostly presented in granular form. Because this kind of calcium chloride has good hygroscopicity, and it is more convenient and cheaper to manufacture than anhydrous calcium chloride, and it is used in snow melting, so it is a common snow melting agent product in the market.

 

Applications of calcium chloride dihydrate

 

1: Used as a freezing agent, also used in food processing, pharmaceuticals, etc.

2: Used as calcium fortifying agent, chelating agent, curing agent, and freezing agent in the food industry.

3: Used as a feed calcium supplement.

4: Used as a coagulant, and it can be used in appropriate amounts in soybean products according to the production needs in China.

5: Used as freezing agent (such as freezing brine for the freezer, freezing brine for ice making and popsicle making), antifreeze, auto antifreeze, fire extinguishing agent. It is used as a fire retardant for melting ice and snow, finishing and finishing cotton fabrics.

6: Used as adhesive and wood preservative. It is the raw material for manufacturing anhydrous calcium chloride.

7: Used in wall painting and plastering work to increase the coagulation ability. Used as a coagulant in rubber production. Mixed starch paste is used as a gluing agent.

8: Used in non-ferrous metal smelting. Used as a medical drug.

9: Oxygen and sulfur absorber. Food protection agent. Sizing agent. Water purifying agent.

 

Storage and transportation characteristics

 

Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place, away from incompatible substances. Keep the container tightly closed. The bulk calcium chloride dihydrate is packed in medium open iron drums with a net weight of 200kg per drum; the flake calcium chloride dihydrate is packed in woven bags lined with plastic bags with a net weight of 25kg or 50Kg per bag. see calcium chloride anhydrous for storage and transportation.
