FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of fused calcium chloride?
When stored in a cool, dry place in its original sealed packaging, fused calcium chloride has a shelf life of approximately 2 years. Exposure to moisture can reduce its effectiveness over time.
2. Can this calcium chloride be used in food-grade applications?
This product is classified as extra pure but is not certified for food-grade use. For food applications, ensure you select a variant explicitly labeled as food-grade calcium chloride.
3. How does fused calcium chloride differ from anhydrous calcium chloride?
Fused calcium chloride is produced through a melting process, resulting in a granular form with high purity. Anhydrous calcium chloride, on the other hand, is typically a powder and is completely free of water, making it more hygroscopic.
4. What precautions should be taken while handling this chemical?
Always wear protective gloves, goggles, and a lab coat when handling calcium chloride. Avoid inhalation and direct contact with skin or eyes, as it can cause irritation. Work in a well-ventilated area.
5. Is this product compatible with plastic containers for storage?
Yes, fused calcium chloride can be stored in high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polypropylene (PP) containers. Ensure the container is tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption.
