Calcium Hydroxide Powder

The CAS registry number for Calcium Hydroxide Powder is 1305-62-0. Its chemical formula is Ca(OH)2, with a molecular weight of 74.1 g/mol. Quote this number when requesting a quotation or checking documentation, as it identifies the substance unambiguously regardless of the trade name used.

Calcium Hydroxide Powder is also referred to as Slaked Lime and Hydrated Lime. These names describe the same substance, so a specification or enquiry written against any of them can be matched to this product.

Calcium Hydroxide Powder is supplied as Industrial grade. State the grade your process requires when requesting a quotation — where an alternative grade can be sourced, it is confirmed at quotation stage rather than assumed.

Calcium Hydroxide Powder is supplied at a concentration of ≥90% Ca(OH)2. Concentration and assay are separate figures: the concentration describes the strength of the material as supplied, and the certificate of analysis issued for your consignment carries the measured values for that batch.

Calcium Hydroxide Powder is described as white, fine powder. Appearance is a useful first check on receipt of goods, though it does not replace the certificate of analysis for confirming that the material meets specification.

Common applications include water treatment — pH adjustment and impurity precipitation, construction — mortar and soil stabilization enhancement, sugar refining — clarification via milk of lime process, leather tanning — involved in dehairing and deliming, chemical manufacturing — intermediate for calcium hypochlorite and agriculture — soil pH correction and nutrient availability improvement. The suitability of the product for a particular process depends on the grade and specification required, which is worth confirming against your own process conditions.

Calcium Hydroxide Powder is supplied to the Water Treatment, Agriculture & Agrochemicals, Construction & Admixtures and Textile & Leather Tanning sectors. These are the industries this product is listed against in our catalogue; if your application falls outside them, we can advise on suitability before you order.

Supplied in 25 kg bags suitable for industrial use. Where a different pack size or bulk delivery is required, it is confirmed at quotation stage against availability rather than listed here as standard.

Store in a cool, dry location at ambient temperature (+2 °C to +30 °C); use storage appropriate for corrosive inorganic solids (storage class 10–13). This is general guidance only. The safety data sheet for the product supplied is the authoritative source for storage, handling and incompatibility requirements, and should be read before the material is received on site.

Calcium Hydroxide Powder is recorded against the EC number 215-137-3 and the HS customs code 252220. Quote this on customs and export paperwork; it is confirmed again on the commercial invoice for your specific consignment.
