About UsCalcium hydroxide {Ca(OH)2}, or commonly referred to as hydrated lime, is a refined mineral product. Calcium oxide is reacted with water in a controlled process to form a calcium hydroxide product that has the consistency of a fine white powder containing less than 2% residual moisture.
Calcium Oxide + Water = Calcium Hydroxide + Heat
{CaO} + {H2O} = {Ca(OH)2}
Standard Hydrated Lime can be used in flue gas treatment as well as many water treatment and industrial applications.
dry hydrated lime in an easy-to-use form with excellent material handling characteristics.
Calcium Hydroxide is a high purity hydroxide used in a wide variety of food industry applications.
Calcium Hydroxide can be applied into a wide variety of chemical manufacturing applications where purity and reactivity are important.
Calcium Hydroxide is designed to meet the exacting requirements of the petroleum additives industry.
Architectural Lime Putty is used in construction and restoration applications
Precipitated calcium carbonate and ground calcium carbonate products are used in many paint (architectural, industrial, and traffic) and ink applications as either a function filler extender. Paints, inks and coatings are versatile and require specific solutions in order to maximize their performance. Without raw materials such as pigments and fillers, performance would suffer. Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC) products are designed to provide optimum performance in coating and ink applications. These products provide:
Precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC), calcium oxide, and calcium hydroxide have a diverse range of functionality in the paper industry. Calcium carbonates are used in both Paper Coating and as a Paper Filler, while calcium oxide and calcium hydroxide are used in Pulp/PCC Manufacturing applications.
paper mill customers from the wet end through the coating operations. applications. With superior blue-white shaded and engineered crystal morphology, the Lime precipitated calcium carbonate products have excellent optical qualities for all paper making applications.
Calcium oxide or calcium hydroxide is required as a raw material for the PCC manufacturing process. The lime is also a key component of the sulfate process in pulp plants where it is used to re-causticize a waste calcium carbonate solution and regenerate sodium hydroxide for reuse in the process.
Mississippi Lime?s Standard Quicklime and Standard Hydrated Lime are widely used in both Pulp and PCC manufacturing applications.
Calcium oxide and other calcium products are used in a variety of steel and metals applications primarily in Electric Arc Furnace (EAF), Basic Oxygen Furnace (BOF), as well as related Water Treatment and Environmental systems. Calcium oxide (quicklime) is used as a flux in purifying steel in the electric arc furnace (EAF) and basic oxygen furnace (BOF), removing phosphorus, sulfur, and silica, and manganese. Quicklime also has important uses in the secondary refining of steel and in the manufacture of steel products. |
