Calcium Hydroxide
We are manufacturing Calcium Hydroxide in Technical, Pure & LR Grade.
These Products are available in 50 kgs Bag/Drum.
Calcium hydroxide, traditionally called slaked lime, is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Ca(OH)2. It is a colorless crystal or white powder and is obtained when calcium oxide (called lime or quicklime) is mixed, or "slaked" with water. It has many names including hydrated lime, builders' lime, slack lime, cal, or pickling lime. Calcium hydroxide is used in many applications, including food preparation.
