1. Calcium Chloride Flake (CaCl₂) rapidly lowers the freezing point of water, effectively melts ice and snow, and prevents re-icing on roads, parking lots, and airport runways.
2. Due to CaCI2 highly hygroscopic nature, this product is widely used as a desiccant to control moisture and humidity in air, industrial gases, and in the packaging of various materials.
3. As a concrete accelerator, CaCl₂ promotes faster setting and curing of concrete, enhances early strength development, and allows for cold-weather concreting.
4. The solution of Calcium Chloride is applied to unpaved roads, mining sites, and construction areas to suppress airborne dust by attracting and retaining moisture.
5. In oil and gas drilling, Calcium Chloride is used to formulate and weigh drilling muds and completion fluids, helping to stabilize shale formations and control wellbore pressure.
