DOWFLAKE Xtra 83-87% Calcium Chloride Flakes are white, free-flowing flakes with a minimum of 83% active ingredient calcium chloride, which is 10% higher than conventional 77-80% calcium chloride flake. This product meets or exceeds ASTM D98 and AASHTO M144 purity requirements for Type S, Grade 3, Class B calcium chloride.
DOWFLAKE Xtra has distinctive properties that make it the ideal choice for ice melting, dust control, concrete acceleration, and many other applications. Its higher concentration provides a lower application rate than conventional 77-80% calcium chloride flake
- DOWFLAKE Xtra releases heat to melt snow and ice faster and across a wider range of temperatures than other materials. Mix it with rock salt, sand, and gravel to improve their performance. It reduces dust on unpaved surfaces by absorbing moisture from its surroundings, keeping the surface damp and binding dust particles to the gravel.
- Adding DOWFLAKE Xtra to concrete results in reduced time for initial and final set, increased early strength, and protection in cold weather.
- When put into solution, DOWFLAKE Xtra is effective in many other applications, including tire weighting, brine refrigeration, and as an inert ingredient in pesticide formulations.
