Calcium chloride Use and Manufacturing

Uses

It is highly hygroscopic and is often used as a desiccant. Used as a multi-purpose desiccant, such as drying of nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, hydrogen chloride, sulfur dioxide and other gases. Used as a dehydrating agent in the production of alcohols, esters, ethers and acrylic resins. Calcium chloride aqueous solution is an important refrigerant for refrigerators and ice making. It can accelerate the hardening of concrete and increase the cold resistance of building mortars. It is an excellent building antifreeze. Used as an anti-fogging agent in ports, dust collectors on roads, and fabric fire retardants. Used as protective agent and refining agent in aluminum-magnesium metallurgy. It is a precipitant for the production of lake pigments. Used for waste paper processing and deinking. It is the raw material for the production of calcium salt.

Drug Function and Efficacy

Calcium supplement. Calcium ions can maintain normal excitability of nerves and muscles and promote the secretion of acetylcholine by nerve endings. When serum calcium is low, the excitability of nerves and muscles may increase, resulting in convulsions. When blood calcium is too high, the excitability may decrease, resulting in weakness. Calcium ions can improve the permeability of cell membranes, increase the density of capillaries, reduce exudation, and have an anti-allergic effect. Calcium ions can promote the calcification of bones and teeth. There is a competitive antagonism between high concentrations of calcium and magnesium ions, which can be used to rescue magnesium poisoning; calcium ions can react with fluoride to form insoluble calcium fluoride, which can be used to rescue fluoride poisoning.
