Calcium Chloride Fused Lumps (75%, Industrial Grade)
White to off-white fused lumps · CAS 10043-52-4
Also see our standard Calcium Chloride Granules (94% Purity, Industrial Grade) page.
Overview
Calcium Chloride Fused Lumps (75%) are the economical industrial grade, made by fusing calcium chloride into hard white lumps with at least 75% CaCl₂. They cost less per kilo than the 90% and 94% anhydrous grades, which suits large-volume uses where top purity is not needed: container and warehouse desiccant bags, de-icing and dust control on haul roads, refrigeration brine and concrete acceleration. Suraj Chemicals stocks fused lumps in Chennai for bulk buyers across India.
