Calcium chloride anhydrous
Product Overview & Quality
- Product Name: Calcium chloride anhydrous
- Grade: Analytical Reagent (AR Grade), optimized for high-purity laboratory applications and moisture-sensitive reactions.
- Purity (Assay): Not less than 97%
- Physical Properties: Odorless white granules or powder.
- Solubility: Highly soluble in water; dissolution is strongly exothermic (releases significant heat).
Safety & Hazards
- Classification: Classified as an irritant; causes serious eye irritation.
- Health Risks: Direct contact with eyes causes redness and pain. Skin contact, especially in the presence of moisture, may cause irritation due to the heat of hydration.
- First Aid Measures: Flush affected eyes or skin with plenty of water. Move to fresh air if dust is inhaled.
Handling & Storage
- Storage: Must be kept in a tightly sealed, airtight container due to its highly hygroscopic and deliquescent nature (readily absorbs moisture from the air). Store in a cool, dry place.
- Precautions: Wear standard PPE, including chemical-resistant gloves and safety goggles. Prevent dust formation and exercise caution regarding the heat generated when dissolving the substance in water.
