Product Description
Calcium Carbide Description
⚙️ Calcium carbide (CaC2) is a hard lump substance, dark grey or brown in cross-section.
⚙️ It is a lumpy substance with a slightly deep gray surface and a slight characteristic smell.
⚙️ It generates acetylene gas upon contact with water and can burn when meeting fire.
⚙️ Acetylene gas mixed with air forms an explosive mixture (explosive range: 2.3% - 81%).

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Where is the production plant located? A: The factory is located in Inner Mongolia, near the raw material source. It covers 5000 square meters with a monthly production capacity of 6000 tons.
Q: How do you guarantee the quality? A: We perform multiple sampling tests during processing to ensure gas yield. We conduct air pressure testing on drums to ensure they are sealed tight. All production follows Chinese National Standard: GB10665-2004.
Q: What is the standard gas yield? A: Typically, the gas yield for particle sizes 80-120mm, 50-80mm, and 25-50mm is 295L/KG.
Q: What is the expected delivery time? A: Delivery is usually within 20 days after receiving the deposit or original L/C.
Q: What are the primary safety precautions for storage? A: It must be kept away from water and moisture as it produces explosive acetylene gas. Different sizes are stored separately to avoid mixing.
Q: What are the main industrial uses? A: It is primarily used for acetylene gas production, PVC synthesis, metal welding, and as a desulfurizer in steel manufacturing.
