DEICING USING CALCIUM CHLORIDE

 Deicing is a method of removing the accumulated ice and snow from the roads and pavements with the help of chemicals. Heavy snowfall during the winter season is a hurdle and threat to the commute and daily life. Deicing should be done quickly on busy routes to avoid accidents. Hence deicing is done using chemicals like calcium chloride, Magnesium chloride, Potassium chloride or Magnesium acetate.

The advantage of using Calcium Chloride as ice melt over other mentioned chemicals is its better performance at a lower temperature. Its tendency to combine with and absorb moisture makes calcium chloride dissolve in water more rapidly than other substances. Calcium Chloride can melt ice and snow even at -25°F (-32°C). The efficiency of Calcium Chloride as an ice melt decreases the labour cost also.

Calcium Chloride is available as flakes and pellets. Sachlo is a leading chemical manufacturing company in Saudi Arabia and MENA. Sachlo is Calcium Chloride Flakes Manufacturer Saudi Arabia.
