Calcium Granules (LR Grade) – 50g

Calcium Granules – 50g, also referred to as Calcium Metal (secondary names include Calcicat), is a Laboratory Reagent (LR) grade elemental metal supplied specifically for educational laboratory use. This silvery‑grey solid is a key teaching material for demonstrating the properties and reactivity of alkaline earth metals in a controlled school setting.

Calcium is the fifth most abundant element in the Earth’s crust and is commonly found in natural materials such as limestone, gypsum, and fluorite. Supplied as granules, this product enables clear observation during teacher‑led demonstrations and supervised practical work focused on metal properties and reactivity. The 50g pack size supports controlled use and inventory management in schools.

In line with regulations, this chemical is supplied only to educational establishments and delivered exclusively to verified school or institutional addresses.
