CALCICOATTM calcium chloride (CaCl2) is a white, high purity granules with 94 to 97 weight percent CaCl2. It has the following features when compared to its nearest competitor: When sprayed, the shape of granules makes them more controllable than powder shape. Higher concentration of calcium chloride gives a higher heat of dissolution, promoting faster melting and higher penetration rate as a deicer. CALCICOATTM Calcium chloride is used in petroleum industry as drilling mud additive and drying petroleum fractions, in cement manufacture to low alkali and acting as a source of chloride. To melt the Highway ice for sidewalks, parking lots and driveways. This high energy should be sprinkled lightly and evenly over ice surfaces at an application rate of about 2 pounds per 200 square feet. Thawing begins immediately.
