What is Calcium Oxide?
Calcium Oxide (CaO), known as quicklime, is a white, caustic, and alkaline substance widely used in various industries. It is produced by heating limestone (calcium carbonate) at high temperatures in calcination. Quicklime is known for its high reactivity, making it a crucial component in multiple industrial applications.
