  2. Calcium hydroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_hydroxide

    Calcium hydroxide is modestly soluble in water, as seen for many dihydroxides. Its solubility increases from 0.66 g/L at 100 °C to 1.89 g/L at 0 °C. [8] Its solubility product K sp of 5.02 × 10 −6 at 25 °C, [1] its dissociation in water is large enough that its solutions are basic according to the following dissolution reaction:

  4. Nair (hair removal) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nair_(hair_removal)

    Calcium hydroxide is an active ingredient that chemically breaks down the hair for removal. [6] Some formulations also contain potassium thioglycolate, which breaks down the disulfide bonds in the hair's keratin. [6] The products often include softening agents, such as mineral oil, to help offset the harsh active ingredients. [6]

  5. Portlandite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portlandite

    Portlandite is a hydroxide-bearing mineral typically included in the oxide mineral class. It is the naturally occurring form of calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH) 2) and the calcium analogue of brucite (Mg(OH) 2).

  6. Calcium hydroxychloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_hydroxychloride

    A white solid, it forms by the reaction of hydrogen chloride with calcium hydroxide [3] According to X-ray crystallography, it adopts a layered structure related to brucite (magnesium hydroxide, Mg(OH) 2). [4] Calcium hydroxychloride is sometimes confused with calcium hypochlorite. Calcium hydroxychloride is a double salt, which consists of ...

  7. Pozzolanic activity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pozzolanic_activity

    The pozzolanic activity is a measure for the degree of reaction over time or the reaction rate between a pozzolan and Ca 2+ or calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH) 2) in the presence of water. The rate of the pozzolanic reaction is dependent on the intrinsic characteristics of the pozzolan such as the specific surface area , the chemical composition and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afwillite

    Afwillite is a calcium hydroxide nesosilicate mineral with formula Ca 3 (SiO 3 OH) 2 ·2H 2 O. It occurs as glassy, colorless to white prismatic monoclinic crystals. Its Mohs scale hardness is between 3 and 4. It occurs as an alteration mineral in contact metamorphism of limestone. [4]

  9. Sulfate attack in concrete and mortar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfate_attack_in_concrete...

    Alteration of hardened cement paste composition, with monosulfate aluminates phase converting to ettringite and, in later stages, gypsum formation. The necessary additional calcium is provided by the calcium hydroxide and calcium silicate hydrate in the cement paste; The effect of these changes is an overall loss of concrete strength.
