The main component of slaked lime is calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2).
Slaked lime, with calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) as its main component, is a white powder. It is moderately alkaline. When in contact with water it can release a certain amount of heat.
In construction, it is used in making mortar and plaster. It helps bind materials together and provides a smooth finish.In agriculture, it can be used to improve acidic soils. By adjusting the soil pH, it makes the soil more suitable for plant growth.In the environmental field, slaked lime can be applied in wastewater treatment. It can help remove heavy metals and neutralize acidic substances in the water.
What are the applications of Slaked lime?
1.In the construction industry:
· It is used to prepare building materials such as lime mortar and lime plaster. These are used for bricklaying and
wall plastering, providing adhesion and filling.
· When mixed with sand and other materials, it forms a composite soil called "three-mix soil" which is used for
foundation treatment and ground paving, enhancing the stability and durability of the ground.
| Chemical Name | Slaked lime (calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2) |
| Appearance | White powdery solid |
| Solubility | Slightly soluble in water. The aqueous solution is alkaline. |
| Density | Relative density is approximately 2.24. |
| Melting Point | 580ºC (decomposes). |
| Boiling Point | There is no exact boiling point. It decomposes when heated. |
| Color | White. |
| Raw Material | Generated by the reaction of quicklime (calcium oxide, CaO) with water. |
