Hydrated lime, also known as calcium hydroxide, is celebrated for its versatility and effectiveness. It plays a crucial role in agriculture, construction, and various industrial processes. Here are some key features and applications of Austin White Lime Hydrated Lime:

  1. Soil Amendment: Hydrated lime can be used to adjust soil pH levels in gardening and farming. It helps to raise the pH in acidic soils, making them more suitable for a variety of crops and plants.
  2. Construction: In construction, hydrated lime is used as a key ingredient in mortar and plaster, enhancing their workability and durability. It also contributes to the formation of calcium silicate hydrates, which improve the strength and resilience of concrete.
  3. Environmental Control: Hydrated lime is employed in wastewater treatment facilities to neutralize acidic effluents and control odors. It can also be used for flue gas desulfurization in industrial processes, reducing air pollution.
  4. Pest and Disease Control: In agriculture, hydrated lime can help control pests and diseases by creating an environment that is less favorable to harmful organisms.
  5. Stabilization: In road construction, hydrated lime is used to stabilize soils, improving their load-bearing capacity and reducing the need for costly repairs.
The 50lb bag bundled by Evergreen Farm and Garden ensures you have a substantial supply of hydrated lime for your specific needs. It is important to handle and store hydrated lime carefully, as it can be caustic. Follow safety precautions and guidelines provided on the packaging.
