Application and Advantages of Calcium Carbide in Steel Desulfurization

Basic Information of Barreled Calcium Carbide

Barreled calcium carbide, with calcium carbide (CaC2) as its main component, possesses remarkable characteristics. Calcium carbide has a high melting point of up to 2300°C, which enables it to maintain stability under high - temperature industrial environments. It also exhibits excellent electrical conductivity, a property that makes it stand out among many industrial chemicals. These physical properties lay a solid foundation for its wide - ranging applications.

Advantages in International Trade

In international trade, barreled calcium carbide holds significant advantages. Its high purity and stability are widely recognized. Our calcium carbide products typically have a purity of over 90%, ensuring consistent quality in various industrial applications. This high - quality standard makes it a preferred choice for global procurement. The stability of the product also means that it can be safely transported and stored over long distances, reducing the risks associated with chemical products.

Application in Steel Desulfurization

In the steel industry, desulfurization is a crucial process to improve the quality of steel. Barreled calcium carbide plays a vital role in this process. When calcium carbide is added to molten steel, it reacts with sulfur in the steel to form calcium sulfide (CaS). This reaction effectively reduces the sulfur content in the steel. According to industry data, using calcium carbide for desulfurization can reduce the sulfur content in steel from an average of 0.05% to less than 0.01%, significantly improving the mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of the steel. The following table shows the comparison of steel properties before and after desulfurization:

Other Application Scenarios

Apart from steel desulfurization, barreled calcium carbide has a wide range of other applications. When it reacts with water, it produces acetylene, which is an important raw material for the synthesis of rubber and resin. In the rubber industry, acetylene - derived products can improve the elasticity and wear - resistance of rubber. In the resin industry, they can enhance the hardness and heat - resistance of resin. Moreover, when calcium carbide is processed with ammonia water, it can be used for the extraction of precious metals. This shows the versatility of barreled calcium carbide in different industrial fields.
