Calcium Chloride Manufacturers; Uses & Applications
Uses (Industrial)
Millions of
tons
of calcium chloride are made each year across the globe, and it has a wide
variety of industrial applications.
Because it is strongly
hygroscopic,
air
or other gases may be channeled through a column of CaCl2 to remove moisture.
In particular, it is used to pack
drying
tubes to exclude atmospheric moisture from a reaction set-up while
allowing gases to escape. It can also be added to liquids to remove
suspended or dissolved water.
Aided by the intense heat evolved during
its dissolution, calcium chloride is also used as an
ice-melting
compound. Unlike the more-common
sodium
chloride (rock salt or
halite),
it is relatively harmless to plants and soil; however, recent observations
in Washington state suggest it may be particularly harsh on roadside
evergreen trees. It is also more effective at lower temperatures than sodium
chloride.
Used for its
hygroscopic property, it can be applied to keep a liquid layer on the
surface of the roadway, which holds dust down. It is used in concrete mixes
to help speed up the initial setting, however chloride ion leads to
corrosion of steel
rebar,
so it should not be used in
reinforced concrete.
Aqueous calcium brine (in solution
with water) lowers the freezing point as low as -52°C (-62°F), making it
ideal for filling agricultural implement tires as a liquid ballast, aiding
traction in cold climates.
Other industrial applications include use
as an additive in plastics, as a drainage aid for wastewater treatment, as
an additive in
fire
extinguishers, as an additive in control scaffolding in
blast
furnaces, and as a thinner in
fabric
softener.
It is used to melt ice. Because one of its
chief uses is as a drying and dehydrating agent, it is used by many
municipalities in de-icing roadways.
It is used for dust control application too. It's is
sprinkled on dusty sideways. Due to it's moisture retaining properties,
calcium chloride helps in control of dust.
Farmers were the first ones to figure out that if you add weight
to a tractor, you get better traction. This was the genesis of
the benefits of calcium chloride in tire traction. You have
CaCl2 to thank for those tires with good traction. It is used in
the automotive industry to obtain better traction.
Other listed uses of CaCl2 are:
It helps to set paper dyes by providing artificial water
hardness.
It is used in
the Portland cement
manufacturing as an additive to reduce alkali content of cement.
It is used in the plastics industry like
PVC-bending etc.
It is used in
concrete additive to accelerate its hydration at low
temperatures, to give the concrete durability and strength, to
accelerate its setting.
It is used
together with Zinc Chloride in electroplating of bright zinc on
steel as the electrolyte. It may be used in electroplating of
other metals too.
Calcium Chloride ( Calcium chloride ) is used in the petroleum
industry
is drying petroleum fractions like diesel, kerosene and other
hydrocarbon fractions.
It is used as
catalyst in organic technology, for polymerization of ethylene
and propylene, for oxichlorination of ethane to vinyl chloride,
for dehydration of alcohols.
It is used as base stabilization for road
construction.
It is used for freeze-proofing
sand for winter road
application.
It is used for
removal of
phosphates and fluorides in
effluent treatment plants.
It
is used for
mines and oil
well drilling.
It is used
as a
supplement or for calcium
deficiency in animals.
It is used in agriculture
it is for improving the product
quality like tomato skin.
It is used
Drilling
muds &
chemicals.
It
is a compound of
significant
interest to many
marine
aquarists.
Besides its
potential use in
formulating
artificial salt
mixes, it is
also useful in
directly
supplementing
calcium to
aquaria.

Uses (food)
As an ingredient, Calcium Chloride is listed as a permitted food additive in the European Union for use as a
sequestrant and
firming
agent with the
E number
E509. The anhydrous form has been approved by the FDA as a packaging aid to
ensure dryness (CPG 7117.02).
It is commonly used as an
Electrolyte and has an extremely
salty
taste, as found in sports drinks and other beverages such as
Smartwater and
Nestle
bottled water. It can also be used as a preservative to maintain firmness in
canned vegetables or in higher concentrations in
pickles
to give a salty taste while not increasing the food's
sodium
content. It is even found in snack foods, including
Cadbury
Caramilk chocolate bars (purpose unknown).
It can be used to make a
caviar
substitute from vegetable or fruit juices or added to processed milk to
restore the natural balance between calcium and protein for the purposes of
making cheese such as
brie
and stilton.
It prevents spoilage of food and is popularly used as a
preservative in packed foods. It also helps to keep the food healthy and
fresh for a longer duration. As pasteurized milk greatly diminishes calcium
content, calcium chloride is added in small amounts to aid coagulation and
form quality curd. It is also an important cheese making additive. The water
solution of CaCl2 is used in refrigerators.
It helps in lowering the freezing or melting point of
water. It melts ice faster than any other chemical compound and that is why
in extremely cold conditions, the highway department applies it in a powder
form on the roads and sidewalks. It is also widely used as an additive in
the paper making industry and in the manufacturing of dyes.
In brewing beers (esp. ales and bitters),
calcium chloride is sometimes used to correct mineral deficiencies in the
brewing water (calcium is important for enzyme function during the mash, for
kettle protein coagulation (the "hot break") and yeast metabolism) and adds
permanent hardness to the water. The chloride ions enhance flavour and give
a perception of sweetness and fuller flavour.
Calcium Chloride is also used in
making cheese. It improves curd size and texture when using store bought
milk. One teaspoon of 30% solution will treat 2 gallons of milk. To
compensate for the processing of store bought milk, add calcium chloride
prior to adding rennet to the cheese mixture. The addition of calcium
chloride will help restore the altered milk protein and aid in the
development of a quality curd.
Agriculture
Uses: A number of studies show crop responses to foliar
calcium, but these are not necessarily based on experiments with the
chloride form. For example, a spray that contained calcium oxide increased
yields and average fruit size of tomatoes. In agriculture, it has been used
to manage about 35 different physiological disorders of plants. Annual
sprays of calcium chloride increased yields of Anjou pears and decreased
incidence of alfalfa greening and cork spot .. and so on.
Other listed
uses are:
Pickles - Placing fresh cucumbers in a tank containing a solution of .5%
calcium chloride and 7.0% sodium chloride reduces softening during
fermentation.
Apples - Immersing apples in a 3.0 - 8.0% calcium chloride solution reduces
cork spotting and bitter-pit problems.
Cherries - Brining sweet cherries in a 2.5 - 4.0% solution of
Calcium Chloride
preserves their
firmness.
Olives - Brining Black Ripe and Greek olives in a solution containing 0.5 -
1.0% Calcium Chloride
maintains their
firmness.
Fruits and Vegetables: it is used in to increase the firmness of fruits and
vegetables, preventing breakup in processing and cooking.
Cheese Manufacturing:
it
is used to increase
the size and strength of the curds.
Beverage Manufacturing: The bottling industry uses it to remove sodium
alkalinity from water used in soft drink and beer formulation. Water is then remineralized to desired levels assuring uniform taste regardless of
processing location.
Novelty Ice Cream: CaCl2 is also used as a refrigerant in molds used to
manufacture novelty ice cream and frozen dessert products.
Calcium Chloride
is also used as a
meat tenderizer and a flavor enhancer.
Uses (biological/medical)
Calcium chloride can be injected as
intravenous therapy for the treatment of
hypocalcaemia (low serum calcium). It can be used for: insect bites
or stings (such as Black Widow Spider bites); sensitivity reactions,
particularly when characterized by
urticaria (hives); magnesium intoxication; as an aid in management of
the acute symptoms in lead colic; in cardiac resuscitation, particularly
after open heart surgery.
Parenteral calcium can be used when
epinephrine has failed to improve weak or ineffective
myocardial contractions.
Calcium Chloride injection may antagonize cardiac toxicity as measured by
electrocardiogram (ECG/EKG).
It can help rapidly lower
dangerously-high levels of serum
potassium in
hyperkalemia.
Calcium Chloride can be used to
quickly treat Calcium Channel Blocker toxicity, from the side effects of
drugs such as Diltiazem (Cardizem)
- helping avoid potential heart attacks.
The aqueous form of calcium chloride is
used in genetic
transformation of cells by increasing the cell membrane permeability,
inducing competence for DNA uptake (allowing DNA fragments to enter the cell
more readily).
Calcium Chloride can also be used in the
reef
aquarium hobby for adding bio-available calcium in solution for
calcium-using animals such as
algae,
snails,
hard tube worms, and
Corals
although the use of
calcium
hydroxide (kalkwasser mix) or a
calcium
reactor is the preferred method of adding calcium. However, calcium
chloride is the quickest method to increase calcium levels as it dissolves
readily in water.
