Hydrated Lime

When heated above 580ºC, slaked lime gets decomposed into oxides.
When calcium hydroxide absorbs carbon dioxide from the air to produce calcium carbonate.
Calcium hydroxide can be hazardous to health if large amounts are inhaled or ingested.

Shelf Life: Long life if protected from air and moisture.

Because of its weak basic properties, calcium hydroxide has many and varied uses:

A flocculant, in water and sewage treatment and improvement of acid soils
An ingredient in whitewash, mortar, and plaster
In the tanning industry for neutralization of acid, the liming of hides and skins and the flocculation of waste water
In the food industry for processing of water (soft drinks)
As a filler in the manufacture of brake pads, ebonite , paints, rubber for preparation of dry mixes for painting and decorating
Slaked lime is useful as a cheap alkali for removal of acid gases in, for example, coal gas purification, and absorption of chlorine and recovery of ammonia in the Solvay process.

It is supplied in the packing of 22 – 25 kg Paper bags.
Must be stored in well-ventilated and covered area. Avoid contact with water and air.
