Calcium chloride, anhydrous, 96.0+%

Calcium chloride, CaCl2, is a salt of calcium and chlorine. It behaves as a typical ionic halide, and is slid at room temperature.

Common applications include brine for refrigeration plants, ice and dust control on roads, and desiccation. Because of its hygroscpic nature, anhydrous calcium chloride must be kept in tightly sealed, air-tight containers.
