Calcium Carbonate for PVC Pipe

Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC) is a new product made from lime stone that has a wide range of industrial uses. PCC is created by hydrating high-calcium quick lime and then reacting the resultant lime slurry with CO2.

The end result is a very white powder with a uniformly narrow particle size distribution. PCC comes in a variety of crystal morphologies and sizes that can be customised to maximise performance in a specific application.

Application:

Precipitated Calcium Carbonate is used as a filler in the PVC Pipe Industry for smoother extrusion, better surface quality, gloss, tensile strength, and impact strength improvement, with some of the smaller particles able to replace expensive impact modifiers. Kunal Calcium grades are well-known for their high filler content in PVC pipes. It is composed of Calcite and Aragonite, which have varying particle sizes and apparent densities.

Calcium Carbonate for Rubber Industry

Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC) is a new product made from lime stone that has a wide range of industrial uses. PCC is created by hydrating high-calcium quick lime and then reacting the resultant lime slurry with CO2.
