Calcium chloride is an inorganic compound, a salt with the chemical formula CaCl2. It is a white colored crystalline solid at room temperature, and it is highly soluble in water. It can be created by neutralising hydrochloric acid with calcium hydroxide.

Other names
Neutral calcium chloride; calcium(II) chloride, calcium dichloride, E509

Calcium Chloride Dihydrate: 74-77%min 

Application
It is mainly used for the industry of dyeing, medicine, leather making, paper making, chemical fiber, film, photographing, food, etc.

Application

Calcium Chloride is used mainly as agent for gas drying, as additive to oil-drilling mud, as de-icing agent, and as anti-frosting agent for concrete, as binding agent for de-dusting as well for the preparation of solutions as heating meadia or for the prepration of cooling brines. The product is typically available in form of lye or in solid form or granules.

Calcium Chloride can be used to achieve rapid density increase with minimum volume addition. It also provides inhibition preventing the hydration and migration of swelling clays and can be used in packer fluids. Calcium Chloride is available with anhydrous (CaCl2) and dihydrate (CaCl2.2H2O) in forms of powder and pellets.

Uses
De-icing and freezing-point depression

By depressing the freezing point of water, calcium chloride is used to prevent ice formation and is used to de-ice. This application consumes the greatest amount of calcium chloride. Calcium chloride is relatively harmless to plants and soil. As a deicing agent, it is much more effective at lower temperatures than sodium chloride. When distributed for this use, it usually takes the form of small, white spheres a few millimeters in diameter, called prills. Solutions of calcium chloride can prevent freezing at temperatures as low as −52 °C (−62 °F), making it ideal for filling agricultural implement tires as a liquid ballast, aiding traction in cold climates.

It is also used in domestic and industrial chemical air dehumidifiers.

Road surfacing

The second largest application of calcium chloride exploits its hygroscopic nature and the tackiness of its hydrates; calcium chloride is highly hygroscopic and its hydration is an exothermic reaction. A concentrated solution keeps a liquid layer on the surface of dirt roads, which suppresses the formation of dust. It keeps the finer dust particles on the road, providing a cushioning layer. If these are allowed to blow away, the large aggregate begins to shift around and the road breaks down. Using calcium chloride reduces the need for grading by as much as 50% and the need for fill-in materials as much as 80%.
