Calcium Chloride
What are the Calcium Chloride 74% and 94% (Powder/ Flake/ Granule)? 🧪
Calcium Chloride (CaCl₂) is an inorganic white solid substance with good moisture absorption and fast melting in water. It's a popular hygroscopic widely used in chemical, construction, water treatment, food, and logistic industries.
There are many types of them, such as Powder, Flake and Granule by each type designed for a specific purpose.
There are two main grades, following the
- Calcium Chloride 74% (A standard purity industry, perfect for general appliation)
- Calcium Chloride 94% (A high purity with high potential application and used as a premium moisture absorber)
Industrial Applications:⚙️
1) Construction industry
- Used as a concrete accelerating agent
- Reduces concrete setting time in low‑temperature conditions
- Improves early‑age strength of concrete
2) Water treatment industry
- Improves water hardness balance
- Helps control pH when used with other treatment chemicals
- Applied in cooling‑water systems to control scale formation
3) Chemical/Oil and Gas industries
- Used in drilling fluids for well‑drilling operations
- Applied as a dehydration agent to remove moisture from gases and liquids
- Plays an important role in petrochemical processing
4) Food industry (Only for food grade)
- Used as a firming agent
- Used in cheese, processed vegetables, and certain beverages.
5) Desiccant/Moisture Absorber industries
- Prevents moisture damage in shipping containers
- Used in warehouses, equipment storage rooms, and humidity‑controlled areas
- Granule form is the most popular due to its ease of handling and high efficiency
6) De-icing & Anti-icing industries
- Lowers the freezing point of water
- Used for ice melting and road treatment in cold‑climate countries
Safety Information⚠️
Although calcium chloride is widely used, proper safety measures are required during handling and storage:
- Avoid directly inhaling dust
- Avoid direct contact with skin and eyes
- Wear appropriate PPE such as gloves, safety goggles, and dust masks
- In case of skin contact, rinse thoroughly with plenty of clean water
- Store in a dry, tightly sealed container to prevent moisture absorption
- When in contact with water, calcium chloride releases heat Therefore, add water gradually and carefully, and avoid adding large amounts rapidly to prevent excessive heat generation

Q&A ❓
Q: What is Calcium Chloride?
A: Calcium Chloride is an inorganic CaCl₂ substance with a high moisture absorption, fast melting, and various applications such as construction, water treatment, chemical, and moisture absorber.
Q: How different are calcium chloride 74% and 94%?
A: 74% is a purity standard and perfect for general application, but 94% is a high purity, perfect for high-efficiency applications such as moisture absorbers and the petrochemical industry.
Q: What are the differences between calcium chloride powder, flakes, and granules?
A: Powder is perfect for fast-melting applications, flake is perfect for general uses, and granules are used for moisture absorption and in the container.
Q: What is calcium chloride used for?
A: Uses in concrete, water treatment, moisture absorption, petroleum drilling, the food industry, and reducing ice-sticky applications.
Q: How can calcium chloride be stored?
A: Keep it in a dry place, preventing moisture, and seal it tightly because the substance is more prone to absorbing moisture.
