Do you know Calcium Chloride Moisture Absorber? This type of desiccant may be rarely used in our lives, because it is not suitable for every place. When using calcium chloride desiccant, it is very particular, because if it is used improperly, it will We have a bad influence, so let's tell you what kind of desiccant is calcium chloride desiccant?

1. Calcium chloride Moisture Absorber is the main raw material of calcium chloride. Calcium chloride is made of high-quality calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid as raw materials. It is refined into calcium chloride desiccant white porous block, granular or Honeycomb solid. The taste is slightly bitter and odorless. The aqueous solution is colorless. It is mainly used as a raw material for the production of various calcium salts in inorganic chemicals; also as a desiccant for gases, and as a dehydrating agent in the production of alcohols, esters, ethers and acrylic resins.
2. Used as calcium fortifier, curing agent, chelating agent, desiccant, etc. in the food industry. Calcium Chloride Moisture Absorber has the functions of adsorption activity, static dehumidification and odor removal. Not only the adsorption speed is fast, the adsorption capacity is high, but it is non-toxic, odorless, non-contact corrosive, non-environmental, especially non-harmful to the human body. It is widely used in oil seals, optical medicine, health food and military products.
3. Calcium Chloride Moisture Absorber can be used to dry nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, sulfur dioxide and other gases. It cannot be used to dry ethanol and ammonia gas, because the use of calcium chloride desiccant to dry ammonia gas will react to produce chlorine compounds (CaCl2·8NH3), which is equivalent to absorbing ammonia gas. Using calcium chloride desiccant to dry ethanol will generate slightly soluble CaCl2·6C2H5OH. Therefore, calcium chloride desiccant cannot be used to dry ethanol and ammonia.
