Calcium chloride is more efficient than sodium chloride because has a greater heat of dissolution and consecutively the temperature is greater and the melting of ice easier. Also calcium chloride is not so dangerous for the vegetation as sodium chloride.
But calcium chloride is more expensive than sodium chloride.
Also be sure that all the chlorides are corrosive for metals (the cars included).
