Description
Product Overview
Calcium Chloride 80% is an industrial-grade chemical compound primarily available as white to off-white flakes or granules.
It is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture from the air, making it highly effective for moisture control and dehumidification.
While less pure than 94–96% grades, 80% purity is widely preferred for cost-effective industrial and environmental applications.
