Product Description

Calcium Hydroxide FCC Grade

"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 Food Chemical Codex.

Wide Range of Applications

Calcium Hydroxides versatility makes it indispensable in diverse fields such as water treatment, flue gas scrubbing, construction, pharmaceuticals, and the food industry. Its ability to neutralize acids, stabilize soil, and participate in chemical synthesis drives its broad industrial adoption.


Quality and Storage Excellence

Supplied in high-purity forms (up to 99%), Calcium Hydroxide is packed in robust HDPE bags of 25 or 50 kg. Proper storage in tightly sealed containers, away from moisture and in cool, dry places, ensures maximum stability and a shelf life of up to 24 months from the manufacture date.


Safe Handling and Benefits

While non-poisonous, Calcium Hydroxide is caustic and can cause severe skin burns or eye damage. Always wear protective equipment when handling. Its benefits include efficient pH adjustment, pollution control, and food-grade uses as permitted, contributing to safe water and better construction materials.

FAQs of Calcium Hydroxide:


Q: How is Calcium Hydroxide produced?

A: Calcium Hydroxide is produced by hydrating quicklime (calcium oxide, CaO) through a chemical process called slaking. The quicklime reacts with water to form calcium hydroxide, commonly known as slaked lime or hydrated lime.

Q: What are the main industrial uses of Calcium Hydroxide?

A: Calcium Hydroxide is widely applied in water treatment, soil stabilization, flue gas treatment, chemical manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, the food industry (as E526), and construction. Its high alkalinity makes it valuable for neutralization and purification processes.

Q: When should Calcium Hydroxide be handled with extra caution?

A: Calcium Hydroxide should always be handled with care, especially during transfer, mixing, or application. It is caustic and causes severe skin burns or eye injury, so protective gloves, goggles, and clothing should be used. Avoid direct contact with skin or eyes at all times.

Q: Where should Calcium Hydroxide be stored for optimal stability?

A: Store Calcium Hydroxide in tightly closed containers made of chemically resistant materials like HDPE. The storage area should be cool, dry, and well-ventilated to prevent moisture absorption and degradation, maintaining product quality for up to 24 months.

Q: What are the benefits of using Calcium Hydroxide in water treatment?

A: In water treatment, Calcium Hydroxide efficiently neutralizes acidic impurities, softens water by precipitating excess minerals, and aids in removing heavy metals. This ensures safer, cleaner water for industrial and municipal use.

Q: How does particle size and purity affect Calcium Hydroxides performance?

A: Calcium Hydroxide with finer particle size (200-325 mesh) and higher purity (90%-99%) offers better reactivity and consistency in applications such as chemical processes, food production, or environmental treatment, ensuring effective results and process stability.
