lime powder
Ground calcium oxideite
Lime powder is calcium oxide or calcium hydroxide in powite powder form, used in construction, agriculture, and water treatment.
In building, it's a key ingredient in mortar and plaster.
Farmers spread lime powder to reduce soil acidity.
It also appears in traditional food preparation—nixtamalization of corn, for instance.
Not to be confused with powdered lime fruit.
