Calcium Chloride Anhydrous 94-97%
Calcium chloride anhydrous is an inorganic chemical compound, formula CaCl2. It appears white granular, prill, pellet and powder forms according to different production process. Calcium chloride anhydrous contains 90 to 97 percent calcium chloride. It is typically classified into two products in the commercial market, 90% anhydrous calcium chloride and 94-97% anhydrous calcium chloride. In the South and North American markets, there is a calcium chloride of 93%. Bell chemical can supply all the calcium chloride products.
Calcium chloride anhydrous is extremly hygroscopic. It absorbs humidity from the open air. So it should be stored in sealed containers in dry place. It is widely used in daily life as a desiccant, snow melting agent, cement hardener and so on. In addition, it plays an important role in the field of oilfield drilling process.

*What Are The Differences of Dihydrated And Anhydrous Calcium Chloride?
- Dihydrated calcium chloride, chemical formula CaCl2•2H20, CAS No.10035-04-8; Anhydrous calcium chloride, chemical formula CaCl2, CAS No.10043-52-4.
- Dihydrated calcium chloride contains about 20% combined crystallization water, Anhydrous calcium chloride contains no water of crystallization.
- Dihydrated calcium chloride contains pure calcium chloride from 74% to 78%. Anhydrous calcium chloride contains pure calcium chloride from 90% to 98%.
- Dihydrated calcium chloride has a molecular weight of 147.0 g/mol, while anhydrous calcium chloride has a molecular weight of 110.98 g/mol.
- Anhydrous calcium chloride is more expensive than dihydrated calcium chloride.
- Anhydrous calcium chloride as a deicing agent works more effective than dihydrated calcium chloride.
- Different application needs different calcium chloride.
