The steel industry demands reliable and efficient materials to optimize production processes, and “calcium carbide (CaC₂)” plays a pivotal role in “desulfurization, deoxidation, and alloying”. As a trusted supplier of premium-grade calcium carbide, we provide solutions that enhance steel quality, reduce impurities, and improve operational efficiency.
Why Choose Calcium Carbide for Steelmaking?
1. “Effective Desulfurization”
Calcium carbide reacts with sulfur in molten iron or steel, forming “calcium sulfide (CaS)”, which is easily removed as slag. This significantly reduces sulfur content, improving steel ductility and toughness.
2. “Powerful Deoxidizer”
CaC₂ acts as a strong deoxidizing agent, minimizing oxygen levels in steel to prevent defects like porosity and inclusions, ensuring superior mechanical properties.
3. “Alloying & Carburization”
In specialty steel production, calcium carbide introduces carbon and adjusts composition, enhancing hardness and wear resistance in high-carbon steels.
4. “Cost & Energy Efficiency”
Compared to alternatives, CaC₂ offers faster reaction rates, reducing processing time and energy consumption in electric arc furnaces (EAF) and ladle treatment.
Our Competitive Edge
– “High Purity (>80% CaC₂)”: Low phosphorous and nitrogen content for cleaner steel.
– “Controlled Particle Size”: Optimized for rapid dissolution and consistent performance.
– “Safe Packaging”: Nitrogen-sealed drums or bulk containers to prevent moisture absorption.
Applications in Steel Mills
– “Primary Steelmaking”: EAF and basic oxygen furnace (BOF) operations.
– “Secondary Refining”: Ladle furnace treatments for ultra-low sulfur steels.
– “Foundry Use”: Cast iron modification.
