Calcium silicide is mainly used as a reducing agent in metal smelting and alloy production. It can also be used to prepare various silicides, bismuth-lead alloys and other compounds. It also has certain applications in rocket engine fuel.
Our products implement the most stringent quality management system. There are strict inspection standards for incoming materials, processes, final inspections, and factory inspections. Strict isolation measures will be adopted for unqualified processing to prevent unqualified products from flowing into the next process. Samples will be provided to customers according to customer requirements for re-inspection.
Vacuum packaging, the packaging quantity can be provided according to customer requirements and packaged separately.
Calcium silicide should be stored in a dry and ventilated place, away from fire and heat sources to prevent accidents. This product should be sealed and stored in a dry and cool environment. It should not be exposed to the air for a long time to prevent moisture from agglomeration, which will affect the dispersion performance and use effect. In addition, calcium silicide should avoid heavy pressure and contact with oxidants. It should be transported as ordinary goods.
VI HALBLEITERMATERIAL GmbH (VIMATERIAL) employs a stringent quality assurance system to ensure the reliability of our product quality. Strict quality control is implemented throughout the entire production chain, and for defective products, we strictly enforce the principle of rework and redo. Each batch is released only after passing detailed specification tests.
Every batch of our materials is independently tested, and, if necessary, we send samples to certified companies for testing. We provide these documents and analysis certificates with the shipment to certify that our products meet the required standards.
