Calcium metal kana metallic calcium isimbi-chena simbi.Iyo inonyanya kushandiswa se deoxidizing, decarburizing, uye desulfurizing mumiriri mu alloy simbi uye yakakosha simbi kugadzirwa.Iyo inoshandiswawo seanoderedza mumiriri mune yakakwirira-kuchena isingawanzo pasi simbi maitiro.
Calcium isimbi-chena simbi, yakaoma uye inorema kudarika lithium, sodium, uye potassium;inonyungudika pa815°C.Iyo makemikari ehupfumi yesimbi calcium inoshanda chaizvo.Mumhepo, calcium ichava oxidized nokukurumidza, ichivhara chidimbu che oxide film.Kana ichipisa, calcium inopisa, ichikanda kupenya kwakanaka kwezvidhinha.Kuita kwecalcium nemvura inotonhora kunonoka, uye mhirizhonga yemakemikari inoitika mumvura inopisa, ichiburitsa hydrogen (lithium, sodium, uye potassium ichaitawo mhirizhonga yemakemikari maitiro kunyange mumvura inotonhora).Calcium zvakare nyore kusanganisa nehalogen, sarufa, nitrogen uye zvichingodaro.
