Calcium chloride
1. Calcium chloride, CaCl2, is a common salt. It behaves as a typical ionic halide, and is solid at room temperature.
2. It has several common applications such as brine for refrigeration plants, ice and dust control on roads, and in concrete.
3. It can be produced directly from limestone, but large amounts are also produced as a by-product of the Solvay process.
4. Because of its hygroscopic nature, it must be kept in tightly-sealed containers. 5) It is used to turn kelp into a solid.
Description
Application:
1.Petroleum : Oil field drilling,stabilizing mud layar,lubricating drilling,making hole plug,fixing oil well.
2.Water treatment : Calcium ions can precipitate most anions.Chloride ions precipitate cations,and can also oxidize ions to purify wastewater.
3.Cryogen : Calcium Chloride solution is an important refrigerant for refrigerators and ice making.
4.Used for snow meltin and deicing on roads, expressways, parking lots and ports.
5.As fog removing agent and dust collecting agent on road, pot
6.As a dryer to dry nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, hydrogen chloride and sulfur dioxide etc.
7.As dehydration agent when producing alcohol, ester, ether and acrylic acid.
8.It can increase hardness of concrete and increase cold resistance ability of the construction.
9.As fireproof agent of textile ,coal mine.
