About Calcium Hydroxide 1305-62-0
"Calcium Hydroxide", having CAS-No: 1305-62-0, and traditionally being called hydrated lime or slaked lime, is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula as Ca(OH)2. It is free flowing super fine super white powder, free from grits & other contaminations and is obtained when calcium oxide (quicklime) is "slaked" with water, to form "Hydrated Lime". Calcium Hydroxide is used in a wide variety of traditional & emerging applications, because of its chemical & physical properties. These are high quality optimum products, compliant to various compendiums, being diligently processed under good manufacturing practices. These products are free from all known allergens and do not contain any prohibitory or toxic chemicals or non-kosher ingredients. The usual shelf life of the product is three to six months from the date of manufacturing of batch. This grade of Calcium Hydroxide shall be compliant to the core specifications & requirement of the British Pharmacopeia.

Versatile Applications Across IndustriesCalcium Hydroxide's unique properties make it suitable for diverse applications, including water purification, construction (as a component in mortar and plaster), soil stabilization in agriculture, pH adjustment in laboratories, and as an additive in food processing and pharmaceuticals. Its reliability and high purity allow for extensive usage in industrial and scientific contexts.
Quality assurance and safety standardsManufactured under stringent quality controls (standard: IS 1540 Part 2), Calcium Hydroxide passes 95% min through a 90-micron IS sieve, ensuring fine consistency. It is non-toxic, provided it is handled properly, with heavy metal content below 0.002%. Proper storage in a dry, cool, well-ventilated area guarantees optimal shelf life and stability.
User-Friendly Packaging and HandlingSupplied in durable 25/50 kg HDPE or laminated bags, Calcium Hydroxide is easy to transport and store. It is odorless and solid in form, making it convenient for both large-scale industrial users and laboratory professionals. Adequate ventilation and safe handling protocols ensure no risk to users.
FAQ's of Calcium Hydroxide 1305-62-0:
Q: How should Calcium Hydroxide 1305-62-0 be stored to maintain its quality?
A: Calcium Hydroxide should be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Keep it away from moisture, acids, ammonium salts, and reactive metals to preserve its stability and prevent reactions that could degrade its quality.
