Calcium Chloride
Also referred to as calcium dichloride, calcium chloride is an inorganic compound that classifies as a salt. At room temperature, it is colorless and highly soluble in water. It can be used in everything from de-icing airplanes and coating road surfaces to an additive in our food.
Calcium chloride is highly absorbent, highly deliquescent and can easily be dissolved in water.
When dissolved into water, it creates a large amount of solution heat and greatly lowers the freezing point of water, with strong antifreezing and de-icing effects.

Application
- One use for calcium is as a desiccant. Anything that qualifies as a desiccant means it's used as a drying agent. Using calcium chloride in foods helps to absorb any moisture that would create an environment where bacteria would thrive.
- It is also used both pre-and post-harvest to maintain firmness, reduce decay, and prevent certain diseases in fruits and vegetables
- With such a widely applicable benefit as a drying agent, calcium chloride is used in a number of applications. One of these applications includes de-icing and preventing the formation of ice.
- It's also used in this way for road surfacing. The calcium chloride binds to dirt roads in a way that prevents the formation of dust.
- Other common uses of calcium chloride include water treatment to increase the water hardness in swimming pools, in medicine to treat internal hydrofluoric acid burns and even cardiac arrest, in food applications and more.
