Food Grade Calcium Hydroxide
Calcium hydroxide, also known as slaked lime, hydrated lime characters: the white powder. With a base flavor, slightly bitter taste, relative density 3.078. Absorb CO2 from the air is converted to calcium carbonate. Heated to 100 degrees Celsius water loss from calcium oxide, calcium carbonate aqueous solution generated film. Extremely difficult to dissolve in water. Strongly alkaline, pH value of 12.4. Soluble glycerol, hydrochloric acid and nitric acid, and a saturated solution of sucrose, not soluble in ethanol.
Purpose: buffers, neutralizers, curing agent; for beer, cheese and cocoa products. Also available in:
1. Manufacturing konjac food coagulant, konjac flour with 30 to 50 times the amount of water, stir into a paste, add konjac powder 5% to 7% of calcium hydroxide (10 times the water to make a solution) are mixed solidification derived.
2. When used as sulfuric acid neutralizer manufacture of starch syrup.
3. sucrose with sucrose to form salts, it is off for molasses honey or sugar refining.
4. Water softening.
5. For stevioside production.
