Raw Material for Calcium Perchlorate Production

According to the Calcium Perchlorate production plant project report, the various raw materials for Calcium Perchlorate production include calcium carbonate-perchloric acid.

Production Process of Calcium Perchlorate

The extensive Calcium Perchlorate production cost report consists of the following major industrial production process:

• Production from calcium carbonate: The production process of Calcium Perchlorate involves calcium carbonate and perchloric acid as the starting materials. In this process, calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is reacted with perchloric acid (HClO4) to produce calcium perchlorate (Ca(ClO4)2) as the final product and carbon dioxide (CO2) as the by-product.

Properties of Calcium Perchlorate

Calcium perchlorate, with the molecular formula Ca(ClO4)2, is a white to yellow crystalline solid with a molecular weight of 238.9792 g/mol and a density of 2.651 g/cm³. It decomposes at a temperature of 270 degree Celsius and is highly soluble in water, ethanol, and methanol but less soluble in acetone and ethyl acetate. It is a strong inorganic oxidizing agent. It enhances combustion and can lead to explosive reactions when heated with reducing agents. It reacts with sulfuric acid to produce perchloric acid and calcium sulfate. Calcium perchlorate is usually prepared by mixing a supersaturated solution of sodium perchlorate with calcium chloride, allowing it to crystallize due to its lower solubility compared to sodium chloride.
