Calcium carbide is an inorganic compound, white crystal, industrial products are gray black blocks, cross-section purple or gray. It reacts violently with water, forming acetylene and releasing heat. Calcium carbide is an important basic chemical raw material, mainly used to produce acetylene gas. Also used in organic synthesis, oxyacetylene welding and so on.
It is called calcium carbide( CaC2). It is a hard lump and the cross section is dark grey or brown.
2. It is lumpy substance, its surface is a little deep gray, has slight nasty smell.
3. It can produce acetylene gas when met water, it can burn when meets fire.
4.The acetylene gas mix with air will form explosive gas (explosive range of acetylene gas in the air is 2.3% - 81%).
1.The main raw material for producing acetylene gas.
2.Cutting and welding for metal material.
synthesize polyvinyl chloride(PVC).
4.Fruit catalyst.
5.The basic material for organic synthesis and calcium cyanamide
6.Reacting with water to bring about ethine.
7. Reacting with nitrogen to product lime nitrogen.
8.The desulfurizer in steel industry.
Supplier: Calcium carbide(CAC2)
