Calcium Carbonate For Paper & Printing
A bright white Calcium Carbonate added to paper pulp as a filler in alkaline papers or applied as a coating pigment. It is used in alkaline papermaking, which is receiving increased interest due to the longer longevity of alkaline papers. Calcium Carbonate is the most abundant mineral on earth that is not silicon-based. Calcium Carbonate is also used as a white pigment in many printing inks. It can be coated to impart greater gloss to the ink surface. It is low in cost and is commonly used as an extender in place of the more expensive Titanium Dioxide.Calcium Carbonate is used in a paper mill as a filler material in the alkaline papermaking process.
Nowadays Calcium Carbonate is dominant over other papermaking filler materials. The main reason behind the preference of Calcium Carbonate is the demand for brighter and bulkier paper. There are significant benefits to the use of Calcium Carbonate as a filler material in the alkaline papermaking process. Nowadays Calcium Carbonate is dominant over other papermaking filler materials. The main reason behind the preference of Calcium Carbonate is the demand for brighter and bulkier paper. Generally, the particle shape of Ground Calcium Carbonate is a rhombohedral. This filler material is used in the alkaline wood free papermaking process. The brightness of GCC is 86-95%.

Calcium Carbonate For Pipes & PVC Product
Calcium carbonate improves the base properties of polyvinyl chloride by adding stiffness to the polymer matrix and improving impact resistance as particle sizes become smaller. Calcium carbonate also improves compounding performance by helping disperse various ingredients into the PVC powder blend and improves processing by making polymer flow more homogenous. The relationship between a calcium carbonates particle size and the impact strength of the finished rigid PVC part also applies to an extruded pipe and injection-molded fittings. The object is to produce an acceptable part at the lowest possible cost.
This is achieved by minimizing the level of ingredients that add cost to the PVC formulation, such as impact modifier. The ideal is to eliminate the use of impact modifier. This can be achieved in larger diameter pipes using a formulation containing a 2-3 micron Calcium Carbonate. The impact specification is usually more difficult to meet in a small diameter pipe, thus a finer calcium carbonate must be used usually in the range of 1-2 microns. The size of the filler used can have a dramatic effect on the impact strength of a PVC compound. We provide very wide range of coated calcium carbonate and uncoated calcium carbonate which suits all PVC pipes and compounding applications.

Calcium Carbonate For Cables
Cables are manufactured from solid materials or stranded copper core. Previously fire-resistant cable shell are made from PVC plastic, it is flammable, while fire, it creates smoke and waste large amounts of toxic gases, endanger human life. Using Calcium Carbonate is GREAT SOLUTION for this problem! – Calcium carbonate is nontoxic, odorless and tasteless, it does not affect the environment.
The thermal decomposition temperature of calcium carbonate is above 800 , and general plastic are flammable, and its ignition temperature of about 400 , so the initial combustion stage, the hope of calcium carbonate decomposition in carbon dioxide is not possible ACMA Calcium carbonate for cables is a cost effective filler, reducing product cost effectiveness.

Calcium Carbonate For Film
Calcium Carbonate is currently used to enhance mechanical properties and improve productivity in a wide variety of film applications. Our Calcium carbonate can boost the output of processing lines while achieving improved impact strength and higher stiffness. The major benefits of Calcium Carbonate in film include:
- Enhance performance properties of the compound
- Increased Specific Output.
- Faster heating and cooling.
- Higher Production line speed.
- Enhanced Machine uptime.
- Lower Raw Material costs.
- Higher Stiffness and High Dispersion.
- Lower film density and Higher Opacity.

Calcium Carbonate For Adhesives
When a filler is used in an adhesive formulation, it is typically meant to take up space. But the space it occupies has a crucial function, making it a role player and a key component to your products success. A number of functional fillers are available for various applications, including calcium carbonate and others. Calcium carbonate is available in particle sizes ranging from less than 1.0 micrometer to large white decorative chips. Calcium carbonate is a relatively soft, insoluble mineral that is widely used to reduce cost and to control shrinkage in adhesive formulations.
Calcium Carbonate is available in the widest variety of particle-size distributions of any mineral, and an optimum form for an adhesive and sealant application can easily be found. In high-end formulations, Calcium Carbonate helps the product maintain its viscosity, physical strength and properties, says Baker.

Calcium Carbonate For Rubber
Ground calcium carbonate is used in a wide variety of rubber applications as both an extender and detackifier agent. In other calcium carbonate rubber applications, it can add stiffness or provide abrasion resistance. Calcium Carbonate is used in rubber industry as a reinforcing filler to improve strength as well as whiteness. It imparts stiffness to non cured rubber products.
APPLICATIONS :

Calcium Carbonate For Glass & Calcium
Limestone is an important component in glassmaking and is used as a stabilizer which improves the mechanical properties and physical appearance of the glass. Glass industry required high limestone. Iron and other colouring matter like carbon are regarded as objectionable. ACMA Limestone is ideal for the glass industry as it has a high purity with very low levels of undesirables and contaminants that would be detrimental to the glass making process. It has a very low Iron content with high Calcium content and with the added advantage of consistent Magnesium content typically.
The Limestone that is produced can have both economic and environmental benefits to the glass producer. We currently produces high quality limestone for the manufacture of container glassware. ACMA Calcium Carbonate limestone powder is resulting perfect results in all glass applications, starting from commercial glass, recycling, container etc.
