Calcium Carbonate (powder) Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Calcium Carbonate (powder) (Product Code: SCI-450/137) is a powdered analytical reagent grade calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) used for neutralisation, thermal decomposition and reaction-rate experiments in chemistry teaching laboratories. It comes in a compact 100 g pack with an MSDS, a practical quantity for classes that use only small portions per group. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, which provides laboratory chemicals to schools and colleges.

Specifications

What Is Calcium Carbonate Powder Used For?

Because a powder presents a large surface area, it reacts quickly with dilute acids, which makes it the fast half of the classic surface-area comparison against granules or chips. It is also used to neutralise excess acid in soil and water investigations, showing students why powdered limestone is spread on acidic fields.

Strongly heated in a crucible, calcium carbonate decomposes to calcium oxide (quicklime) and carbon dioxide; adding a few drops of water to the cooled residue and testing with indicator completes the limestone cycle in school chemistry practicals. Weigh the powder on paper or a watch glass rather than tipping it from the pack, and reseal promptly to keep it dry and free-flowing.

Supplier

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, known to customers as ScienceLab, supplies this powder from its reagent list, which institutions often order with crucibles, burners and acids for the same syllabus. Orders are handled for schools, colleges, dealers and importers in India and international markets. The ScienceLab profile describes the company.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much Calcium Carbonate (powder) is in one pack?
Each pack of Calcium Carbonate (powder) SCI-450/137 holds 100 g of analytical reagent grade material and is supplied with an MSDS. Tell us how many packs each laboratory needs when you ask for a quotation.

What is the difference between Calcium Carbonate (powder) and the granules?
Calcium Carbonate (powder) reacts with acid much faster than granules because of its larger surface area. The powder suits neutralisation and decomposition work, while granules are preferred for a steady flow of carbon dioxide in gas preparation.

Can Calcium Carbonate (powder) be heated to make quicklime?
Yes. Strongly heating Calcium Carbonate (powder) in a crucible decomposes it into calcium oxide and carbon dioxide, a standard school demonstration of thermal decomposition and the limestone cycle. Use tongs and let the crucible cool before handling it.

What is the shelf life of Calcium Carbonate (powder)?
Shelf life depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted. Keep Calcium Carbonate (powder) sealed and dry so that it stays free-flowing.

Who supplies Calcium Carbonate (powder) SCI-450/137?
Calcium Carbonate (powder) SCI-450/137 is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India. The company sources reagents for schools, colleges and distributors, and can quote this powder together with glassware and heating equipment.
