Winter road maintenance
- Removes icing from roads, pavements and stairs, freezing rain, slush, slush-related slipperiness, rime, snow and glaze ice
- Calcium chloride (CaCl2) is more effective and more efficient than road salt
- The effective operational temperature of salt is up to -6°C, while calcium chloride is an effective agent for removing snow and ice even at temperatures as low as -40°C!
- Moreover, its consumption is even 10 times lower than that of salt, and its effect can last up to 72 hours after application, as opposed to the short-lived effects of salt
Summer surface maintenance
- Effectively eliminates dusting
- Increases the strength and integrity of the road surface
- Reduces bump and rut formation
- If used regularly, it reduces the frequency of regeneration work
- Reduces equipment and labour cost - Reduces the cost of purchasing materials intended for road filling and maintenance
- Improves safety - increases visibility
- Easy to apply, quick preparation of solution
Agriculture & Horticulture
- Source of easily absorbable calcium (Ca) for fruit and vegetables
- Prevents physiological diseases and fungal infections
- Delays ripening and prolongs storage time of fruit and vegetables
- Stimulates fruit growth
- Allows minimising the effects of stress caused by drought or frost
- Increases crack resistance of fruit
Chemistry
- Gas and liquid drying agent in chemical syntheses
- Plastics additive
- Calcium salt production component
- pH adjusting agent
Construction
Addition to mortars and concretes:
- sealing properties
- binding accelerator
- enables concreting at temperatures below 0°C
Water treatment/purification
- Auxiliary agent in the drainage of sewage treatment plants
- Phosphate neutralisation in wastewater treatment plants
Mining
- Calcium chloride solution increases the density of the liquid phase of drilling mud used for deposit mining
- Chloride and calcium scrubber additive
- Prevents explosive effects in coal mines (binds coal dust), kerosene refining
Other
- Dehumidification of flats
- Component of cooling and extinguishing solutions/mixes
- Flame retardant for cotton fabrics
- Paper processing and discoloration
- Improves air quality (binds dust and suppresses PM10 particles)
