Calcium Carbide

CAS : 75-20-7 HS Code : 2849100000 Packing : Grey/Black/Green/Blue/Yellow Iron Drums 305/ 295 /285L/Kg Application Other name: calcium acetylide, acetylene calcium carbide, GA Shape: white crystal, industrial products for black lumps, purple or grey section Partical size avaliable: 2-4mm, 4-7mm,7-15mm, 15-25mm, 25-50mm, 50-80mm, 80-120mm Gas yield: 210L/KG,230L/KG,260L/KG, 295L/KG according different partical size Physical and chemical characteristics: the ore is a solid brown or black solid, pure white crystal products(including CaC2 is purple).Density of 2.22g/cubic centimeter,melting point of 2300 degrees C(with CaC2 content),in case of water immediately produce a violent reaction, the formation of acetylene, and the release of heat, calcium carbide content of different melting point will also change. Calcium carbide (CaC2) is a pivotal inorganic compound known for its industrial form as gray-black block-like material, often displaying purple or gray cross-sections. When exposed to water, it undergoes an energetic reaction, producing acetylene gas and releasing heat. Primarily, it's employed for two key purposes: as a source of acetylene gas with applications in welding, cutting, and fuel, and as a raw material in organic synthesis for chemicals like vinyl chloride and synthetic resins.
