Product Description

Inorganic Calcium Chloride Ice Melt Flakes

Low chlorine formulation specifically designed for railroad snow melting applications and industrial use.

Product Overview

Calcium chloride appears as a white or colorless crystalline powder, granules, or crystalline mass with hygroscopic (deliquescent) properties. This inorganic compound (CaCl₂) is soluble in water and ethanol, produced through the reaction of calcium carbonate with hydrochloric acid or calcium hydroxide with ammonium chloride. Widely utilized in medical applications, antifreeze formulations, and as a coagulant.

Key Features

Appearance: White crystal, powder, or pellet form
Density: 1.086 g/mL at 20°C
pH Value (10% solution): 8-10
Highly hygroscopic with easy deliquescence when exposed to air

Industrial Applications

Desiccant: Anhydrous calcium chloride serves as an effective desiccant across multiple industries, particularly for gas drying, liquid drying, and solvent drying applications, efficiently removing moisture from various systems.

Snow-Melting Agent: Specifically formulated for winter conditions, our calcium chloride rapidly absorbs water and melts snow on railroads and roadways. Its ability to lower water's freezing point effectively prevents ice formation, ensuring transportation safety.

Cement Hardener: Functions as a quick-setting agent for cement, accelerating the setting and hardening process. Particularly beneficial for construction projects in low-temperature environments.

Refrigerant: Utilized in refrigeration systems as an auxiliary refrigerant, taking advantage of the significant heat released during dissolution in water.

Food Industry: Approved as a food additive for tofu production and cheese processing, where it enhances tofu hardness and improves cheese texture and flavor.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a snow-melting agent?

A snow-melting agent is a chemical substance designed to lower water's freezing point, facilitating the melting of snow and ice on surfaces such as roads, sidewalks, and driveways.

How do weather conditions affect snow-melting agent performance?

Environmental factors including wind, humidity, and temperature can impact effectiveness. High winds may disperse granules before dissolution, while temperature determines melting efficiency.

What is the optimal application time for snow-melting agents?

Apply before or during snowfall to prevent ice bonding to surfaces, ensuring maximum effectiveness and safety.

How do snow-melting agents improve road safety?

Proper application reduces ice formation and enhances traction, significantly improving vehicle safety on treated surfaces.

What are common types of snow-melting agents?

Primary types include sodium chloride (rock salt), calcium chloride, magnesium chloride, and potassium chloride, each with specific applications and performance characteristics.

What are recommended application methods?

Distribute evenly over snow and ice using shovels, spreaders, or manual application, depending on the area size and specific requirements.
