Calcium Metal Extra Pure is a high-purity, silvery-white alkaline earth metal used extensively in laboratory settings for its strong reducing properties and high reactivity. It plays a vital role in metallothermic reductions, particularly for extracting reactive metals like uranium, thorium, and zirconium from their oxides or halides. In controlled experiments, it is also used to generate hydrogen gas when reacted with water and to study exothermic redox reactions. The extra pure grade ensures low impurity levels, which is critical for precise synthesis and analytical work. Due to its high reactivity with air and moisture, it must be handled under inert conditions and stored in airtight containers or under oil to prevent oxidation.

SAFETY HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

  1. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE):
    • Wear chemical splash goggles, flame-resistant lab coat, and gloves (non-reactive, like nitrile).
    • Use a face shield and fume hood when handling large amounts or open flames.
  2. Handling:
    • Handle under inert atmosphere (argon or nitrogen) if possible, or in mineral oil to prevent oxidation.
    • Avoid contact with water, moisture, or air, as calcium reacts vigorously, producing heat and hydrogen gas (flammable).
    • Use non-sparking tools and grounding when transferring.
  3. Storage:
    • Store in tightly sealed containers, under oil, dry argon, or in a desiccator.
    • Keep away from water, acids, and oxidizers.

FIRST AID MEASURES

  1. Inhalation (if dust is generated):
    • Move to fresh air immediately.
    • Seek medical attention if symptoms like coughing or shortness of breath occur.
  2. Skin Contact:
    • Brush off any particles.
    • Wash the area thoroughly with soap and water.
    • Do not apply water directly to unreacted metal on skin — may cause burns due to reaction.
  3. Eye Contact:
    • Rinse immediately with copious water for 15+ minutes.
    • Keep eyelids open and seek immediate medical attention.
  4. Ingestion:
    • Do not induce vomiting.
    • Rinse mouth with water.
    • Seek immediate emergency medical help — reacts with water in the digestive tract.

FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

  1. Flammability:
    • Highly flammable in powder or granule form.
    • Reacts with water to release flammable hydrogen gas.
  2. Extinguishing Media:
    • Use Class D dry powder extinguishers (like graphite, soda ash, or dry sand).
    • Do NOT use water, COâ‚‚, or foam — these may cause explosive reactions.
  3. Hazardous Combustion Products:
    • Calcium oxide fumes, hydrogen gas, and intense heat.
  4. Firefighter Protection:
    • Use self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and full-body protective gear.
    • Approach from upwind and avoid contact with water-based extinguishers.
