🔬 Applications (in Detail)
1. Water Treatment & Environmental Applications
Used for neutralizing acidic wastewater and controlling pH in industrial effluents.
Acts as a flocculant and coagulation aid in water purification.
2. Construction & Cement Industry
Added in cement, mortar, and plaster formulations for improving workability and strength.
Used in lime-based products for building restoration and soil stabilization.
3. Chemical Industry
Precursor for CaO production and other calcium compounds.
Utilized in chemical synthesis, pH regulation, and neutralization reactions.
4. CO₂ Sequestration & Environmental Remediation
Reacts with CO₂ to form calcium carbonate, useful in carbon capture and emission control.
Applied in soil remediation to reduce acidity and improve fertility.
5. Polymer & Composite Materials
Functions as a filler to improve mechanical properties, thermal stability, and alkaline resistance in polymer composites.
6. Biomedical & Research Applications
Used in dental materials, bone grafts, and tissue scaffolds in controlled conditions.
Suitable for nanomaterial research due to high surface area and reactivity.
⚠️ Handling & Storage
Store in a sealed, dry container, away from moisture and CO₂ to prevent conversion to CaCO₃.
Handle with gloves, mask, and eye protection to prevent skin and eye irritation.
Avoid inhalation of fine powders; maintain proper ventilation in the workspace.
