One type of inorganic salt that is both solid and liquid is calcium chloride. Solid calcium chloride can be a powder, granule, flake, or pellet with a white, crystallized form. It can be either dihydrate or anhydrous depending on the crystal water content. Clear and colorless, liquid calcium chloride is a solution.
Due to the rapid dissolution, exothermic ability, ability to draw moisture from the air and surroundings, and ability to dissolve at extremely low temperatures of calcium chloride powder.
Petroleum: drilling in oil fields, cementing, lubricating, and stabilizing mud layers.
Most anions can be precipitated by calcium ions in water treatment.In addition to precipitating cations, chloride ions can oxidize ions to clean wastewater.
Cryogen: A solution of calcium chloride is a crucial refrigerant used in freezers and ice makers.
Used on parking lots, ports, roadways, and highways for deicing and melting snow.
Pot is used as a dust-collecting and fog-removing agent on roads.
As a dryer for materials such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen, oxygen, and hydrogen chloride.
In the process of making acrylic acid, ether, ester, and alcohol as a dehydrating agent.
It can strengthen concrete's resistance to cold and increase its hardness.

Keep the container cool, dry, and well-ventilated. Keep the container away from materials that are incompatible and tightly closed. Product may cake and get moist from ambient moisture if stored for an extended period of time.
When calcium chloride is dissolved, it forms a potent salt solution. It is advised to wear protective clothes, rubber gloves, and eye protection. In work areas, rubber safety boots are also recommended because calcium chloride can harm leather. It is recommended to handle this product in areas with adequate ventilation. Please refer to the MSDS for complete safety and handling instructions prior to using this product.
To find out how to properly dispose of waste containing calcium chloride, get in touch with the relevant local regulatory bodies.
