Calcium carbonate powder is derived from the mineral calcium carbonate, which is naturally found in rocks and shells. It is a white, odorless powder that is highly versatile and widely used in various industries. In the context of health and wellness, calcium carbonate powder is a popular dietary supplement due to its high calcium content.
Ground calcium carbonate powder is widely recognized for its various advantages. It is known to enhance the strength and durability of materials, making it a popular choice in construction and manufacturing industries. Additionally, it can act as a filler, improving the performance of products like paint, rubber, and plastics. It also offers environmental benefits by reducing the carbon footprint in certain applications.
With a range of uses, ground calcium carbonate powder finds its way into everyday products. From toothpaste to medications, from paper to cosmetics, its versatility is undeniable.
1. Product Overview
Ground Calcium Carbonate (GCC) is a naturally occurring mineral obtained from high-purity
limestone or marble. It is mechanically ground into fine powder without changing its chemical
structure. GCC is widely used in various industrial applications due to its excellent physical and
chemical properties.
