Calcium chloride, a salt composed of chlorine and calcium, has a chemical formula of CaCl2. Colorless cubic crystal, white or grayish white, granular, honeycomb block, spherical, irregular granular, powdery. It is slightly toxic, odorless and slightly bitter. It is a typical ionic halide and is a white solid at room temperature. It is extremely hygroscopic and is easily deliquescent when exposed to air. Soluble in water, while releasing a lot of heat, its aqueous solution is slightly alkaline. Soluble in alcohol acetone acetic acid. Interaction with ammonia or ethanol to form CaCl28NH3 and CaCl24C2H5OH complexes
Industrial grade calcium chloride use:
1, oil drilling, drilling working fluid, completion fluid, petrochemical dehydration liquid.
2. Drying agent, such as drying for nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, hydrogen chloride, sulfur dioxide and the like.
3. Snow melting agent, using calcium chloride to melt heat and low freezing point to make road deicer and snow melting
agent 4. Dehydrating agent, used as dehydrating agent in the production of alcohol, ester, ether and acrylic resin.
5. Refrigerant, calcium chloride aqueous solution is an important refrigerant for refrigerators and ice making.
6. Antifreeze agent can accelerate the hardening of concrete and increase the cold resistance of building mortar. It is an excellent building antifreeze.
7. Early strength agent: early strength agent for construction industry, improve concrete strength, coagulant for living paint
8. Dust collector, used as antifogging agent for pavement and pavement dust collector and fabric fireproofing agent.
9. Refining agent, used as a protective agent and refining agent for aluminum-magnesium metallurgy.
10. Precipitant, a precipitant for the production of lake pigments.
11, coagulant: chemical industry inorganic chemical raw materials and sulfate removal agent, sodium alginate
12. Coagulant: rubber industry latex coagulant.
13. Used in the production of pigments and printing and dyeing industry.
14. Used for waste paper processing and deinking.
15. It is a raw material for the production of calcium salts.
Food grade calcium chloride use
Food calcium chloride as a widely used food additive, general food calcium chloride used in the food industry has the following conditions:
1 beverage, as an electrolyte, enhance palatability
2 pickles, calcium chloride itself It has a salty taste, can reduce the amount of salt in
canned food, can be gelatinized, strengthen the consistency of soup porridge
4 tofu, so that soybeans emulsified and solidified. Improve the smoothness of tofu
