Calcium Carbide CaC2 75-20-7 Industrial Grade Export Supply

Industrial calcium carbide candidate for export RFQs, offered as CaC2 lumps with stated CAS 75-20-7, industrial grade positioning, and acetylene gas yield references around 285-305 L/kg depending on size and batch. Buyer review should focus on CAS/spec confirmation, gas yield test method, particle size distribution, moisture-related impurity controls, drum integrity, DG documentation, and India import requirements before quotation.

Before matching

Documents to check

  • CAS number, grade, assay, and impurity profile
  • SDS, COA, TDS, HS code, and transport classification
  • Destination-market import documents before supplier matching
Package and route

Packing notes

  • Supplier page references new iron drums in 50 kg and 100 kg options.
  • Confirm net weight, gross weight, drum dimensions, palletization, container loading plan, and whether palletized or non-palletized shipment is required.
  • Request photos or inspection records for drum sealing, markings, batch labels, and container loading condition.
  • Confirm DG-compliant packaging suitability for UN 1402 and export transport mode before order placement.
Applications and sourcing options

Check whether this product fits the buyer's actual application.

Clear application, grade, package, and document notes help separate real sourcing demand from a vague price check.

Use context

Common applications

  • Acetylene gas production feedstock for qualified industrial facilities
  • Industrial gas supply chain procurement where gas yield and lump size are key purchasing criteria
  • Chemical distribution into regulated industrial channels
  • Steel industry raw material sourcing where calcium carbide specifications match buyer requirements
How we compare

Sourcing options

  • Request quotation by particle size: 25-50 mm, 50-80 mm, or 80-120 mm.
  • Request gas yield tier pricing for 285, 295, or 305 L/kg if available.
  • Request 50 kg or 100 kg iron drum packing with DG documentation included.
  • Request FOB China port and CIF/CFR India quotations with confirmed DG vessel space.
  • Request pre-shipment inspection and batch-specific COA before balance payment.
  • Request trial container or MOQ confirmation; source page references 22 tons MOQ.
Human review

Compliance notes

  • Calcium carbide is a dangerous goods cargo; request SDS, COA, DG declaration, packing certificate, transport classification, and export documentation before RFQ approval.
  • Verify UN 1402 classification, packing group, hazard labels, HS code, and destination-country import controls with the freight forwarder and importer.
  • Do not rely on marketplace claims as regulatory approval; importer should confirm India customs, port, and end-use compliance requirements independently.
  • Ask supplier to provide batch-level gas yield report, CaC2 assay or effective content basis, particle size report, and impurity profile where available.
  • Pay attention to moisture exposure, drum seal integrity, and impurity indicators relevant to acetylene generation quality, including phosphine and hydrogen sulfide limits if required by buyer specifications.
  • Confirm whether third-party inspection, pre-shipment sampling, and SGS/CCIC testing can be arranged for the lot being shipped.
