Appearance & Property: colorless cubic crystal, white or gray, with granular, cellular [massive, spherical, irregular granular powder. Non-toxic, odorless, slightly bitter taste.
Relative Density: 2.15 (25 ℃)
Melting point: 782 ℃
Boiling point: 1600 ℃ to] on.
Solubility: soluble in water, and release a lot of heat, the solution was slightly alkaline. Soluble in alcohol, acetone, acetic acid. And the role of ammonia or ethanol, respectively, and generate CaCl28NH3 CaCl24C2H5OH complexes. The solution is precipitated crystalline hexahydrate at a low temperature, gradually heated to 30 ℃, then dissolved in a own crystal water, heating continued gradual water loss, when changed to 200 ℃ dihydrate and heated to 260 ℃ then becomes white porous anhydrous calcium chloride.
