<\/p>\n<li>Calcium hydroxide (Hydrated lime) is traditionally called slaked lime, is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Ca(OH)2.<\/li>\n<li>It is a colourless crystal or white powder and is obtained when calcium oxide (lime or quicklime) is mixed, or \u2018slaked\u2019 with water.<\/li>\n<li>Calcium hydroxide is used in many applications, including food preparation.<\/li>\n<li>One significant application of calcium hydroxide is as a flocculant, in water and sewage treatment.<\/li>\n<li>It is also used in fresh water treatment for raising the pH of the water so pipes will not corrode where the base water is acidic; hydrated lime is self-regulating and does not raise the pH too much.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Hydrated lime has many other applications:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>As an ingredient in whitewash, mortar, and plaster In road construction, to improve the quality of excessively plastic subgrade soils.<\/li>\n<li>As a long-lasting fungicide In the petroleum refining industry for the manufacture of additives to oils.<\/li>\n<li>In the chemical industry for manufacture of calcium stearate.<\/li>\n<li>For preparation of dry mixes for painting and decorating.<\/li>\n<li>In manufacturing mixes for pesticides, and as a natural insecticide.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Calcium Hydroxide
