Lithium and Calcium Carbides with Polymeric Carbon Structures [PDF]
We studied the binary carbide systems Li2C2 and CaC2 at high pressure using an evolutionary and ab initio random structure search methodology for crystal structure prediction. At ambient pressure Li2C2 and CaC2 represent salt-like acetylides consisting of C2(2-) dumbbell anions.

Kinetic Study of Adsorption of Metal Ions (Iron and Manganese) in Groundwater Using Calcium Carbide Waste [PDF]
Calcium carbide waste (CCW), the rest of the carbide welding workshop industry, is available in quite a lot and is immediately disposed of into the environment. Because CWW has a high pH value and a large specific surface area, it can act as an adsorbent

Effect of Calcium Carbide on Rat Tissue
To evaluate the effects of Calcium carbide (CaC2) in biological system, an in vivo study was carried out on Long Evans rats. CaC2 was administered orally once daily for one month with specific concentrations. Group- I was considered as the control group (without CaC2), Group - II, III, IV and V were the sample groups treated with CaC2 having ...

Calcium carbide in anticipation and standardization of ripening in Cajá-manga fruits
Fruit ripening promoted by the exogenous application of ethylene analogs, such as calcium carbide, has commercial advantages. Thus, the knowledge of the responses of fruits treated with ethylene-inducing agents is essential to optimize the use of these ...
