カルシウムジシアニド 化学特性,用途語,生産方法
解説
シアン化カルシウム,カルシウムのシアン化物。カルシウムシアナミド(石灰窒素の主成分)と炭素に融剤として塩化ナトリウムを加え、1000℃以上に加熱後、急冷して製造する。化学式Ca(CN)2、式量92.1。
CaCN2+C―→Ca(CN)2
無色の粉末で、水に容易に溶け加水分解する。酸によって分解しシアン化水素を発生する。350℃で分解しカルシウムシアナミドと炭素とに戻る。鉄(Ⅱ)塩と反応してヘキサシアノ鉄(Ⅱ)酸塩を与えるので、フェロシアン化カリウム(黄血塩)の製造に用いられる。そのほか金、銀の抽出(青化法)、殺虫剤などの用途がある。猛毒で、空気中の水分および二酸化炭素によってシアン化水素を発生するので、密栓して保存しておく必要がある。
用途
主として燻蒸剤、また肥料、枯れ葉剤、除草剤、殺鼠剤、セメントの安定剤として、ステンレススチールの製造に利用される。
説明
Calcium cyanide is used mainly for the extraction or cyanidation of gold and silver ores. It is
also used in the production of prussiates or ferrocyanides, in the froth flotation of minerals,
in processes where gold complexes are adsorbed on carbon, in the manufacture of stainless
steel, as a fumigant and rodenticide, and as a cement stabiliser. The main users of cyanides
are the steel, electroplating, mining, and chemical industries. The principal cyanide compounds
used in industrial operations are potassium and sodium cyanide and calcium cyanide,
particularly in metal leaching operations. Cyanides have been well established in uses
as insecticides and fumigants; in the extraction of gold and silver ores; in metal cleaning; in the manufacture of synthetic fibres, various plastics, dyes, pigments, and nylon; and as
reagents in analytical chemistry. Calcium cyanide decomposes on heating above 350°C,
producing toxic fumes including nitrogen oxides and HCN. It reacts violently with water,
moist air, carbon dioxide, acids, and acid salts producing highly toxic and flammable HCN.
It reacts violently when heated with oxidising substances causing fire and explosion hazard.
化学的特性
Calcium cyanide is a white crystalline solid or
powder. Odor of hydrogen cyanide.
使用
Calcium cyanide is used for the extraction of gold and silver from their ores, in the froth flotation of minerals, as a fumigant, and as a rodenticide.
調製方法
Calcium cyanide is made commercially from lime, calcium
oxide, coke, and nitrogen. The reactions are carried out in an
electric furnace. The resulting melt is cooled rapidly to
prevent reversion to calcium cyanamide. The product is
marketed in the form of flakes, which are dark gray because
of the presence of carbon. The extraction or cyanidation of
precious-metal ores was the first and is still the largest use for
calcium cyanide.
一般的な説明
White crystals or powder or gray-black powder (technical grade). Toxic by skin absorption through open wounds, by ingestion, and by inhalation.
空気と水の反応
Water soluble with evolution of some hydrogen cyanide, a flammable poison gas. Release of gas is much more rapid if acid is present.
反応プロフィール
CALCIUM CYANIDE gives weakly acidic solutions. Contact with acids causes rapid evolution of hydrogen cyanide. Incompatible with isocyanates, nitrides, and peroxides. May react rapidly with oxidizing agents.
危険性
Toxic by ingestion and skin absorption.
健康ハザード
Calcium cyanide is a highly poisonous compound to humans, animals, and fish. The toxic routes are ingestion, skin contact, and inhalation of the dust. It forms HCN readily when it reacts with CO2 or water. This makes it highly hazardous, more so than the alkalimetal cyanides, although the LD50 value of Ca(CN)2 is greater than the sodium or potassium cyanides.
LD50 value, oral (rats): 39 mg/kg.
火災危険
Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Decomposes in fire to give very toxic gases, including hydrogen cyanide.
安全性プロファイル
A deadly poison by
ingestion and probably other routes. When
heated to decomposition it emits toxic
fumes of NO, and CN-. See also

CYANIDE
職業ばく露
Calcium cyanide is used as a fumigant; as a rodenticide; in leaching precious metal ores; in
the manufacture of stainless steel; and as a stabilizer forcement. Used as raw material for production of nitrogenous
compounds and in treatment of alcoholism
貯蔵
Calcium cyanide is stored in tight containers free from moisture. Proper ventilation and protective equipment should be used while handling the solid or while preparing an aqueous solution. It is shipped in mild-steel or fiber drums.
輸送方法
UN1575 Calcium cyanide, Hazard Class: 6.1;
Labels: 6.1-Poisonous materials
不和合性
Contact with water, acids, acidic salts;
moist air, or carbon dioxide, forms highly toxic and flammable
hydrogen cyanide. Incompatible with fluorine, magnesium.
Reacts violently when heated with nitrites, nitrates, chlorates,
and perchlorates. Calcium cyanide decomposes in high heat
forming hydrogen cyanide and nitrous oxides fumes
廃棄物の処理
Add cyanide waste to strong
alkaline sodium hypochlorite. Let stand 24 hours then flush
to sewage plant.
