CAS 12013-56-8 — Calcium silicide
Calcium silicide (CaSi₂) is a grayish-black, crystalline compound primarily used as a reducing agent in metallurgy, particularly for producing silicon and silicon alloys, as well as in the production of phosphorous and calcium carbide derivatives. It is also employed in chemical synthesis and as a deoxidizer in steel manufacturing. This chemical has a CAS number of 12013-56-8, a molecular weight of 96.25 g/mol, and requires ambient storage conditions. It carries a Danger signal word due to its reactivity hazards. Molekula supplies calcium silicide from research to bulk quantities with full documentation and ISO 9001:2015 traceability.
