Calcium Carbonate (CaCOâ??) Powder is a naturally occurring mineral composed primarily of calcium and carbon. Known for its high purity, brightness, and low abrasiveness, calcite is widely used across various industrial sectors. It is highly valued for its ability to neutralize acids, enhance mechanical properties, and provide cost-effective filler material. Available in fine white powder with particle size ranging from 40 microns to 10 microns.
A member of kaolinite family, Ball Clay is renowned for its plasticity and green strength. They consists varying proportions of kaolinite, mica and quartz, with small amounts of organic matter and other minerals, and are commercially values because they increase the workability and strength of various ceramic bodies and have white or near white firing characteristics. Ball clay is processed to minimize the levels of coarse particles. This enhances better workability and higher strength.
Applications :
It forms a major part of many ceramic applications, including sanitary ware, tiles, table wares and to an increasing extent non-ceramic applications like functional fillers and advanced application for example technical ceramics.
Calcium Carbonate
1. Chemical Name: Calcium carbonate
2. Molecular Formula: CaCO3
3. Molecular Weight: 100.09
4. CAS: 471-34-1
5. Shelf life: 24 months
6. Character: It is powder and granular white or colorless, microcrystalline powder. It is stable in air, and it is practically insoluble in water and in alcohol. The presence of any ammonium salt or carbon dioxide increases its solubility in water, but the presence of any alkali hydroxide reduces the solubility.
7. Usage :
1. Food industry
Food additives: used as nutritional fortifiers, acidity regulators, and anti caking agents in foods such as bread, biscuits, and milk powder.
Calcium supplements: used in food to increase calcium content and enhance nutritional value.
2. Pharma industry
Calcium supplements: used for preparing calcium tablets and other calcium supplements to prevent and treat calcium deficiency.
Pharma excipients: used as excipients in pharma formulations for the preparation of tablets and capsules.
