Hydrated Lime
Hydrated Lime (Calcium Hydroxide) begins its journey as quicklime, meticulously transformed through a process called “slaking” – the controlled addition of water. The result is a fine, dry, and pure white crystalline powder, also known as slack lime or builder’s lime. Its remarkable versatility makes it an indispensable component across a wide array of industries, from creating robust mortars, plasters, and cements to enhancing paints, producing specialized rubber products, aiding in petrochemical processes, and refining leather.
