About Liquid Calcium Hydroxide

"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 US Food Drug Administration.

Versatile Applications Across Industries

Calcium Hydroxides high purity and reliable performance make it a preferred choice in a diverse range of sectors. From ensuring water purity in treatment plants to regulating pH in food manufacturing and neutralizing industrial emissions, this substance is essential in construction, laboratories, and environmental protection projects. Its adaptability to both industrial and food-grade standards underlines its broad utility.

Safe Storage and Handling

For optimal stability and performance, Calcium Hydroxide should be stored in a tightly sealed container in a dry, cool place. While the product is non-hazardous for transport, it is caustic, necessitating proper safety precautions during handling. Always wear protective gear to prevent potential skin and eye irritation and follow local guidelines for industrial materials.

Quality Packaging for Maximum Protection

Packaged in 25/50 kg HDPE lined bags or jumbo bags, Calcium Hydroxide is protected from moisture and contaminants. These robust packaging solutions ensure the powder maintains a moisture content below 1% and meets strict industrial and food-grade standards throughout its two-year shelf life.

FAQs of Calcium Hydroxide:

Q: What are the common uses of Calcium Hydroxide in various industries?

A: Calcium Hydroxide is widely used for processes such as wastewater treatment, flue gas desulfurization, pH regulation in food production, and construction applications like soil stabilization and mortar enhancement. Its alkaline nature is valuable for neutralizing acids and maintaining safe, effective environments.

Q: How should Calcium Hydroxide be properly stored and handled?

A: The powder should be kept in a tightly sealed container, stored in a cool and dry place to preserve stability and extend shelf life. Since it causes skin and eye irritation, always use suitable protective gloves, eyewear, and avoid prolonged exposure during handling.

Q: When does Calcium Hydroxides shelf life expire, and what affects its stability?

A: Under recommended storage conditionsdry, cool place, sealed packagingCalcium Hydroxide remains stable with a shelf life of up to two years. Humidity and exposure to air can compromise quality, so proper storage is essential.

Q: Where is Calcium Hydroxide typically supplied from, and in what packaging?

A: This product is manufactured and supplied from India by various dealers, exporters, and wholesalers. It is available in 25/50 kg HDPE lined bags or jumbo bags to ensure quality during shipping and storage.

Q: How does Calcium Hydroxide benefit water and environmental treatment processes?

A: Its high alkalinity makes it effective for neutralizing acidic contaminants, precipitating heavy metals, and adjusting water pH. In flue gas treatment, it helps reduce sulfur dioxide emissions. In water treatment, it improves clarity and safety by facilitating contaminant removal.

Q: Is Calcium Hydroxide safe for transportation and general usage?

A: Calcium Hydroxide is classified as non-hazardous for transport (UN Number: N/A), making shipping straightforward. While non-toxic, it must be handled with care, as direct contact can cause irritation. Always use personal protective equipment during its use.

Q: What are the solubility characteristics of Calcium Hydroxide, and how does this affect its applications?

A: It is slightly soluble in water, forming a saturated basic solution suitable for pH regulation, but is insoluble in alcohol. Its solubility profile is especially useful in applications where controlled alkaline solutions are required, such as water treatment and chemical synthesis.
