Nicknames of calcium hydroxide: slaked lime, hydrated lime.Production method of calcium hydroxide: The finished product is obtained by digesting calcium oxide with water and drying, sifting and windpicking.Physical and chemical properties of calcium hydroxide: strongly alkaline. Placed in the air, it gradually absorbs carbon dioxide and becomes calcium carbonate. Slightly soluble in water, soluble in acid. With a density of 22.4g/cm3, its clarified aqueous solution is a colorless odorless alkaline transparent liquid with a PH value of 12.4.
Calcium hydroxide is widely used in inorganic chemical industry and organic chemical industry. Calcium hydroxide can be used to produce calcium carbonate, magnesium hydroxide and other products. It can also be used as a petrochemical additive: in the petroleum industry, it can be added to the lubricating oil to prevent coking and sludge deposition, play a role in neutralization and corrosion prevention, and improve the performance and service life of the lubricating oil.
