Exothermic Process
The absorption of water by Calcium Chloride is an exothermic process. This is advantageous in de-icing applications as the heat generated further aids the ice melting process. In addition, Calcium Chloride forms a high salt content, hydrated solution as it absorbs the water. This liquid Calcium Chloride solution has a much lower freezing point than other de-icing products, ensuring that the formation of ice is inhibited to even lower temperatures.
