Calcium Chloride

Desiccant

Calcium chloride has strong moisture absorption capacity and low cost. It is a commonly used neutral inorganic desiccant in industry, which achieves drying effect by physically absorbing water vapor.

1. Dihydrate powder contains crystal water with 74% content, weak hygroscopicity and low price, applied in common snow melting, water treatment and dust suppression;
2. Stack away from rain and water sources, open-air storage is prohibited;
3. Less prone to caking than anhydrous products, but will absorb moisture and soften if exposed to air for a long time, seal tightly after opening.

Oil & Gas Drilling Pellet

Industrial calcium chloride acts as vital auxiliary for oil and gas drilling:

1. Prepare high-density drilling fluid to increase specific gravity, balance formation pressure and prevent blowouts;
2. Raw material for well cementing and fracturing fluid to stabilize underground formation structure;
3. Prevent moisture and corrosion of underground equipment.

Road Snow Melting & Deicing

Calcium chloride has an extremely low freezing point and excellent moisture absorption & heat release properties, making it a mainstream raw material for road deicing and anti-freezing.

1. Melt snow and ice on highways, municipal roads, airports and parking lots in winter. It works fast and keeps deicing efficiently under low temperature.
2. Road dust suppression: Dissolve in water and spray on pavement to absorb air moisture and bind dust to reduce flying dust.
3. Road anti-freezing maintenance: It penetrates pavement cracks after spreading, lowers the freezing point of road surface and delays re-freezing to guarantee safe winter traffic.

Water Treatment Industry

Calcium chloride has an extremely low freezing point and excellent moisture absorption & heat release properties, making it a mainstream raw material for road deicing and anti-freezing.

1. Remove fluoride and phosphate and precipitate heavy metals in sewage treatment;
2. Adjust water quality of circulating cooling water and swimming pools to stabilize water hardness;
3. Serve as flocculant aid for dewatering river sludge and sewage sludge.

Refrigerant / Chilled Brine

Calcium chloride can be formulated into low-temperature chilled brine and used as an industrial heat transfer medium.

It serves as a heat carrier for refrigeration units, cold storages and ice rinks. The prepared calcium chloride brine realizes heat exchange at low temperatures and is widely applied in food quick-freezing and industrial refrigeration units.

Construction Industry

1. Anti-freezing and early-strength agent for concrete: Added in winter construction to lower freezing point and prevent cracking, accelerating cement solidification;
2. Waterproof grouting material for tunnels and roadbeds to enhance compactness;
3. Moisture absorption curing auxiliary for wall putty and coatings.

Metallurgical Industry

1. Flux for metal smelting, lowering slag melting point to separate metal from slag and improve metal purity;
2. Dust suppression for non-ferrous metal smelting;
3. Treat metallurgical wastewater to precipitate heavy metal ions and purify sewage.

Rubber & Plastics Industry

It is a dehydration auxiliary for rubber and plastic production, drying and dehumidifying rubber compounds to reduce bubble defects.

Coal Mine Dust Suppression

Calcium chloride is applied in coal mines. Calcium chloride solution is sprayed on underground roadways and mining faces. It absorbs moisture in the air to coat coal dust, suppress flying coal dust, lower the risk of coal dust explosion and ensure the safety of underground operations.

Food Grade Calcium Chloride

1. Coagulant for bean products such as tofu and dried tofu;
2. Firming agent for canned fruits and vegetables to retain crispness and color and extend shelf life;
3. Stabilizer for ice cream to improve smooth taste;
4. Calcium fortifier for beverages and beer;
5. Calcium supplement for aquaculture water to promote shell growth of shrimps and crabs;
6. Raw material for dehydration and desiccation in food processing.

Agriculture and Breeding

1. Feed additive: Supplement calcium for livestock, poultry, fish, shrimp and crabs to prevent cartilage and soft shell diseases;
2. Aquaculture: Supply calcium ions in water to harden shells of crustaceans;
3. Soil improvement: Supplement calcium in soil to improve soil quality.
