Calcium Chloride

Calcium chloride is a chemical compound made of calcium and chlorine. It appears as a white, crystalline substance and is highly soluble in water, meaning it dissolves easily. Commonly used for applications like road de-icing in winter, it helps melt ice by lowering the freezing point of water. It’s also utilized in food preservation, as a firming agent, and in industry processes such as concrete setting and water treatment. Calcium chloride effectively controls moisture and enhances stability in various products and environments due to its hygroscopic (water-attracting) nature.
