APPLICATIONS:
Calcium hydroxide is applied into a wide variety of chemical and food industry applications.
The dominating uses are as a pH-regulating agent and raw material for mortar. The substance is also used as an additive in cement. Calcium hydroxide can be used to raise the pH of acidic soils. This improves the soil properties for crop growth by speeding the liberation of plant nutrients, the phosphorus uptake and the fixation of nitrogen by soil and plant organisms.
Calcium hydroxide is used to control the storage of fruit and vegetables. Bags of calcium hydroxide are placed on racks in the storage room to absorb CO2 that exudes during their ripening. This ensures a higher ratio of oxygen to CO2 which is necessary for long time storage of vegetables and fruit. Calcium hydroxide products are used in a variety of water treatment systems. The substance is used for softening, pH control and impurity removal in potable water systems. It is also used as a neutralizing agent and precipitant in industrial and municipal waste water applications. Other industrial uses are as performance additive and functional filler in rubber and plastic applications. In rubber production it acts as an accelerator.
