CAS 16887-00-6
:Chloride
Description:
The chemical substance with the name "Chloride" and CAS number 16887-00-6 refers specifically to calcium chloride (CaCl2). Calcium chloride is an inorganic compound that appears as a white, crystalline solid or as a colorless solution when dissolved in water. It is highly soluble in water and hygroscopic, meaning it can absorb moisture from the air. This compound is commonly used for de-icing roads, as a drying agent, and in various industrial applications, including food preservation and as a desiccant. Calcium chloride dissociates in solution to release calcium ions (Ca²⁺) and chloride ions (Cl⁻), contributing to its effectiveness in various chemical processes. It is also utilized in the production of other chemicals and in the oil and gas industry for well drilling and completion. While generally safe for use, it can be irritating to the skin and eyes, and appropriate safety measures should be taken when handling it.
