Calcium Carbonate grades in general, let manufactures to produce high quality products in many applications. Calcite (CaCO3) found in nature in marble, limestone and chalk cyrstal forms with different shape format.Depending on the amount of impurities, whiteness parameters may fluctuate. Deviation of Silicate (SiO2 ) contents will also effect hardness values of the material.
CaCO3 grades are very fine GCC(Ground Calcium Carbonate) which is also featured with fine particle size distribution. Decreasing the oil absorption of calcium carbonate will bring so many advantages to processors to decrease binder absorption, decreasing of manufacturing costs while using more calcium carbonate in the recipes.
CaCO3 chips and granulate grades can be used in wide range of applications like exterior decorative coatings, plasters and texterud coatings.
All CaCO3 grades have ;
- Very White colour properties
- Low Yellowness parameters
- Low binder absorption
- Dust free productions
- Homogenous particle distribution
- Black spot free products
- Controlled tinting capability
- High and long lasting brightness
- Excellent optical effect and opacity
- Good Coating properties if coated
- Clear top cut propertes
