Liquid Calcium Chloride - CaCl2 Liquid
Calcium Chloride (CaCl2) – A Valuable Natural Resource
Liquid calcium chloride (CaCl2) is an ionic compound composed of the element calcium (an alkaline earth metal) and chlorine. It is an odorless, colorless, nontoxic solution, which is used extensively in various industries and applications around the world.
A naturally occurring compound, Liquid Calcium Chloride CaCl2 can be found most often in sea water and mineral springs. A large natural underground brine deposit in northern Alberta has provided Ward Chemical with a static high quality concentration of calcium chloride (CaCl2) since 1985, enabling us to become one of the largest producers of premium liquid calcium chloride in North America.
Properties of Liquid Calcium Chloride
Calcium chloride (CaCl2), in the liquid form, is a highly soluble hygroscopic solution that is also exothermic. Its ability to draw in moisture from its surroundings, resist evaporation, and release heat in a chemical reaction makes it the perfect substance for road construction and maintenance, including ice and dust control and base stabilization.
As proven experts, Ward Chemical can produce various concentrations of liquid calcium chloride. Simply tell us your needs and we can customize a solution.
