Calcium carbide is an inorganic compound. Industrial grade calcium carbide are gray, yellow brown, or black solids, with those containing higher levels of calcium carbide appearing purple. Calcium carbide is immediately react violently with water to generate acetylene and release heat. Calcium carbide is an important basic chemical raw material, mainly used to produce acetylene gas. Also used in organic synthesis, oxyacetylene welding, etc.
