Carbides
We bring for our clients a wide range of carbides that
is available in different grades for various applications. Offered in
different sizes, our range of carbides is used includes boron, silicon and
calcium carbides. The range includes:

Calcium Carbide
Our range of calcium carbide (molecular
formula: CaC2) is available in different colors like grey, brown lumpish
solid. We offer our calcium carbide in packings of 100Kg / 225Kg
nitrogen-filled iron drums. Used as a raw material in organic chemical
industry, our products are used to produce acetylene gas for rubber,
synthetic fiber as well as plastic industry. The other usage of our calcium
carbide are cutting and welding of metal. The technical specifications are

Silicon Carbide (SIC) Briquettes for Steel - Making & Foundries
Silicon Carbide (Briquettes / Balls/ Blocks) for
SteelMaking & Foundries
Integrated Steel Mills
Briquetted silicon carbide slabs are
commonly charged into Basic Oxygen Furnaces as a hot metal extender and fuel
source. The heat generated by the burning of SIC allows a greater percentage
of steel scrap to be used in the BOF charge. The silicon carbide can also be
used to bring a heat back to temperature if cooling has occurred during a
delay.
Electric Arc Furnaces
In carbon steel Electric Arc Furnace shops,
granular silicon carbide can be used as a slag de-oxidant.
Iron Foundries
Briquetted products are used extensively in
iron foundries.
In cupola melting, the briquettes serve primarily as an alloying source,
providing silicon.
SIC additions act as supplementary fuel sources to the coke charge and can
increase melt rates.
