Product Description
Calcium oxide is an inorganic compound.The hemical formula of calcium oxide is CaO. It is also named quicklime. It is white powder and stone.Calcium oxide is hygroscopic.
Calcium oxide is an alkaline oxide.It is sensitive to moisture. It is easy to absorb carbon dioxide and water from the air. It reacts with water to get calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) and generates a lot of heat.It is corrosive.
Quicklime
Quicklime is a widely used compound in a variety of markets in our daily lives, such as construction, environmental, oil and gas, and industrial processes. In the construction market, quicklime is very effective in lowering the soil plasticity index, reducing shrinkage/swelling potential and resisting potentially harmful freeze-thaw and wet-dry cycles. In environmental applications, quicklime regulates the pH of waste streams and reduces the solubility of heavy metals. In the industrial market, quicklime makes the air we breathe cleaner, removes impurities from steelmaking processes and makes the water we drink safer.
Our calcium oxide (CaO), or commonly known as quicklime, is a high calcium content derivative of our 98.5% pure calcium carbonate (limestone). Calcium oxide is produced by heating calcium carbonate to 2000 degrees Fahrenheit, where carbon dioxide is dissociated from the calcium carbonate as a gas.
Calcium carbonate + heat = calcium oxide + carbon dioxide
{CaCO 3 } + heat = {CaO} + {CO 2 }
