Calcium Chloride Min 94% Purity
Chemical Formula: CaCl₂

Calcium Chloride

Calcium Dichloride (Anhydrous / Dihydrate)

A highly hygroscopic salt available in Prills and Powder form. Its exothermic nature (generating heat upon dissolution) makes it indispensable for oil drilling, road de-icing, and industrial drying processes.

CAS Number 10043-52-4
H.S. Code 28272000
Appearance White Prills / Powder

Product Overview

Calcium Chloride is a salt of calcium and chlorine. It behaves as a typical ionic halide, and is solid at room temperature. Ruvon International offers high-purity Calcium Chloride (Min 94%) in both Prills and Powder forms. It is known for its ability to absorb moisture from the air (hygroscopic) and release a significant amount of heat when dissolved in water (exothermic).

This unique combination of properties makes it a preferred choice for accelerating concrete setting times in construction, melting ice on roads in freezing conditions, and increasing fluid density in oil and gas drilling operations.

The "Exothermic" Edge

Unlike sodium chloride (common salt), Calcium Chloride releases heat as it dissolves. This exothermic reaction makes it far more effective at melting ice at extremely low temperatures (down to -32°C). In the construction industry, this heat accelerates the hydration process of concrete, allowing for faster setting times even in cold weather, reducing project timelines significantly.

Industrial Applications

Oil & Gas Drilling

Used in completion fluids to increase density and prevent clay swelling.

De-icing & Anti-icing

Melts ice on roads and pavements faster than rock salt at low temps.

Dust Control

Absorbs moisture to keep unpaved roads damp and suppress dust.

Construction

Concrete accelerator for faster setting and high early strength.

Refrigeration

Used as a brine in refrigeration plants and ice-making machines.

Water Treatment

Increases water hardness in swimming pools to protect concrete.

Packaging Options

25kg PP/PE Bags

Moisture-proof bags with inner liner.

1000kg Jumbo Bags

FIBC bags with bottom discharge spout for bulk use.

Safety & Handling Protocols

Irritant & Exothermic

Calcium Chloride releases heat when dissolved. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.

  • PPE: Wear safety glasses, rubber gloves, and long sleeves to prevent skin irritation.
  • Inhalation: Avoid breathing dust. Use in a well-ventilated area or wear a dust mask.
  • Spill Clean-up: Sweep up dry spills immediately to prevent slip hazards (it becomes slippery when wet).
