Calcium chloride, CaCl2, is a salt of calcium and chloride. It behaves as a typical ionic halide, and is solid at room temperature. Common applications include brine for refrigeration plants, ice and dust control on roads, and desiccation. Because of its hygroscopic nature, anhydrous calcium chloride must be kept in tightly sealed, air-tight containers.

  • By depressing the freezing point, calcium chloride is used to usually prevent ice formation and to deice.
  • Calcium chloride is used to increase the water hardness in swimming pools.
  • As a firming agent, and in brewing beer
  • Calcium chloride is used in concrete mixes to help speed up the initial setting, but chloride ions lead to corrosion of steel rebar, so it should not be used in reinforced concrete. The anhydrous form of calcium chloride may also be used for this
