Application
Calcium chloride may be used in the following processes:
- Modification of natural zeolite to increase its ability of fluoride removal.
- Synthesis of calcium sulfate whiskers utilized in making polymer reinforcing composite materials.
- Synthesis of calcium chloride-anodized aluminum composites, a solid sorbent.
- As an extractant in the soil analysis process.
- As a catalyst in the synthesis of aldols by reacting dimethylsilyl (DMS) enolates with aldehydes.
General description
Calcium chloride (CaCl2) is inexpensive, easily available calcium salt with a wide range of applications. It is a key component in deicers as it melts snow and ice. Reports suggest that CaCl2 helps in retaining the firmness of fresh cut fruits and vegetables during the storage.
