Product Categories: Pharmaceutical Intermediates; Inorganics
Uses
The main use of Calcium cyanamide (CAS NO.156-62-7) is in agriculture as a fertilizer. In contact with water it decomposes and liberates ammonia:
CaCN2 + 3 H2O → 2 NH3 + CaCO3
It was used in the preparation of melamine and calcium cyanide.And it can also be used to produce sodium cyanide by fusing with sodium carbonate, which was used in cyanide process in gold mining:
CaCN2 + Na2CO3 → 2 NaCN + CaO + O2
Production
Calcium cyanamide (CAS NO.156-62-7) is formed when calcium carbide reacts with nitrogen.
CaC2 + N2 → CaCN2 + C
The reaction takes place in large steel chambers. An electric carbon element heats the reactants to red heat. Nitrogen is pressurised at 2 atmospheres.

Safety Profile
Poison by ingestion, inhalation, skin contact, intravenous, and intraperitoneal routes. Moderately toxic to humans by ingestion. Questionable carcinogen with experimental tumorigenic data. Mutation data reported. The fatal dose, by ingestion, is probably around 20 to 30 g for an adult. It does not have a cyanide effect. Calcium cyanamide is not believed to have a cumulative action. Flammable. Reaction with water forms the explosive acetylene gas. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOx and CN−. See also CALCIUM COMPOUNDS, AMIDES, and CYANIDE.
