Calcium Chloride is a highly soluble, hygroscopic inorganic salt produced as a by-product during the Solvay process or through direct reaction of limestone with hydrochloric acid. It is widely used for moisture control, ice melting, dust suppression, road stabilization, and water treatment. Available in both solid and liquid forms, Calcium Chloride is valued for its high dissolution rate, low freezing point, and exothermic hydration. Food-grade variants are used as firming agents, desiccants, and electrolyte supplements.
