Liquid Calcium Chloride

Liquid Calcium Chloride

What is Liquid Calcium Chloride?

LIQUIDOW™ is an inorganic salt mixture that has been purified by removing water from brine solution.  Unlike other processes that are used to produce calcium chloride, the brine process does not require the use of toxic chemicals such as hydrochloric acid or ammonia.  The National Organic Standards Board recorded this difference when it classified the brine process as “non-synthetic.”  LIQUIDOW™ meets or exceeds ASTM D98 and AASHTO M144 requirements for the purity of liquid calcium chloride.  ASTM classification for LIQUIDOW™ is Type L.

Applications

Liquid calcium chloride is a very versatile solution that has many uses.  Some of the applications this solution is used for are:

Storage of Liquid Calcium Chloride

LIQUIDOW™ is hygroscopic which means that it tends to absorb the moisture from the air. But, if you keep it stored in a closed tank that has minimal exposure to humidity in the air, the concentration should not require additional mixing.  In order to avoid your equipment from becoming clogged, make sure that the temperature where your calcium chloride is being stored is not lower than the freezing point.  Otherwise, you will run the potential of the product crystallizing and becoming an issue for your equipment.
