The Difference Between Smooth Granular Calcium Chloride

and Coarse Granular Calcium Chloride

  There are many kinds of calcium chloride. According to the use can be divided into industrial grade calcium chloride and food grade calcium chloride. According to the content can be divided into anhydrous calcium chloride and calcium chloride dihydrate and liquid calcium chloride.

Smooth granular calcium chloride is a form of anhydrous calcium chloride, high content, white color, and the appearance is the small, granular balls. Coarse granular calcium chloride is a form of calcium chloride dihydrate, the content is inferior to anhydrous calcium chloride, higher than liquid calcium, the appearance of white, smooth ball.

Calcium chloride dihydrate is a form in which one calcium chloride molecule carries two water molecules. Calcium chloride dihydrate in addition to the smooth granular one, there are calcium chloride dihydrate powder, calcium chloride dihydrate flakes and other forms. Anhydrous calcium chloride in addition to anhydrous coarse granular one, there are anhydrous calcium chloride powder, anhydrous calcium chloride flakes and other forms.

Anhydrous calcium chloride and dihydrous calcium chloride have important applications in many fields.

1. In the transportation industry, calcium chloride can be used as a road snow melting agent, which has fast speed and high efficiency.

2. In the construction industry, calcium chloride can be used as an antifreeze for winter construction.

3. Calcium chloride can be used as a desiccant; some of the desiccant bags of clothes and shoes are calcium chloride, and calcium chloride can also be used as a desiccant for some specific gases.

4. In the chemical industry, calcium chloride is an important raw material, mainly used to produce some calcium salts.

5. Calcium chloride can also be used as dust collector, fogging agent, deinking agent for waste paper processing and precipitating agent for the production of color lake pigments.

6. In addition, calcium chloride can also be used as a food additive, as a food preservative, etc.
