Liquid calcium chloride (CaCl2) is an odorless, slightly alkaline, colorless fluid. Liquid calcium chloride is available in a variety of concentrations and grades, including food grade and NSF certified.
With our proprietary manufacturing process, chemicals is the only manufacturer that uses food grade quality hydrochloric acid and high purity limestone as raw materials to produce CaCl2. This results in CaCl2 with very low levels of alkali metals, iron, and other impurities when compared to other manufacturers that produce CaCl2 from brines.
Applications
TETRA liquid calcium chloride is used in various applications to retard cold weather hazards, including snow and ice control on roadways (meets or exceeds ASTM D98-95 and AASHTO Ml 44-86 standards). It is also used as an accelerator for ready-mix concrete curing, and as an anti-freeze for coal storage and transportation.
This product is widely used in oilfield applications as completion and workover fluids, and as a drilling mud additive to increase density and prevent clay hydration.
Liquid CaCl2 also can be used as:
A fugitive dust control agent and roadbed stabilizer,
A weighting fluid for tractor tires to improve traction,
An inexpensive source of calcium in wastewater treatment to remove fluoride and break oilwater emulsions,
A low-temperature brine in refrigeration systems, and
An additive in many other industrial applications.
