Calcite is a rock-forming mineral with a chemical formula of CaC03. It is extremely common and found throughout the world in sedimentary, metamorphic and igneous rocks. Some geologists consider it to be a ubiquitous mineral. Calcite Powder is a natural form of Calcium Carbonate with extremely high whiteness, purity and free flowing in nature.

USES OF CALCITE POWDER
PLASTICS:
Due to higher levels of brightness and best lustre the calcite extracted here is best suited for plastic industries and products as master batch/PVCP pipes/etc.
PAPER:
It�¢??s a growing industry for calcium carbonate. These days soapstone and calcite are used simultaneously in paper industry. Lesser abrasion index makes it best suitable for paper.
PHARMACEUTICALS:
After proper treatments this material can be used for pharmaceuticals and food grade industry. Also huge intake in FMCG (edible)is there for this product.
CATTLEFEED AND PESTICIDES:
This product has a huge demand in this industry as it is a good carrying agent.
Calcite Powder is a naturally occurring form of Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3) with an extremely high degree of whiteness, purity. Calcite Powder is extensively utilized as a filler in the manufacturing of plastics owing to its low oil absorption, high dispersibility, smooth surface finish, high impact resistance, easy processing, unmatched dimensional stability, and its compatibility with other complex polymers and organic additives.

For use in paints, plastics, animal feeds, mineral mixture, abrasives, welding electrodes, coatings, primers, water based paints, PVC Pipes, reprocessed plastics, masterbatches
Available in 200-500 mesh
From the day of commencement, we are engaged in bringing forth the clients a naturally obtained range of calcite. Ideally a rock-forming mineral, the range is widely found in sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic rocks. Widely appreciated for low oil absorption, smooth surface finish, high impact resistance, purity, accurate composition and longer shelf life, the range is widely used in the following.
Application: construction material, pharmaceuticals, agricultural, soil treatment, abrasive, construction, aggregate & pigment.
Micronised calcite powder is mainly used as extenders in all type of paint industries and filler for polymers, rigid PVC pipes, PVC profiles & flooring, HDPE pipes filled pp, color master batches, ink, paper coating, pharmaceutical and rubber industries.
Calcite is a calcium carbonate mineral (minerals containing CO3) that is usually white. It is one of the most important minerals in the world and is extremely common. It can be found in the three main types of rocks (sedimentary, metamorphic and igneous rocks) and, in the form of marble or limestone, makes up much of the Earths crust. Calcite is one of the main minerals in limestone, marble and shells of marine species. Interestingly, calcite has more practical uses than most other minerals in the world. It has the same chemical formula as other types of calcium carbonate, such as limestone, marble and chalk: CaCO3. It comes in bright white color and it has nodular particle size with strong crystal structure.
The common features are as follows:
Rapid and complete dispersion
Very Low abrassion at high loading
Very low moisture content
Good compatibility with polymers and other additives
Better impact strength of polymer compound as compared to uncoated material
Applications:
As a formation bridging and filter-cake sealing agent in drilling fluids.
As a weighting material to increase the density of drilling fluids, to control downhole pressures.
As an extender in paints, especially in matte emulsion paints.
As a filler in plastics (example - 15 to 20% loading of chalk in PVC drain pipe) as well as thermosetting resins.
In a wide range of trade and DIY adhesives, sealants, and decorating fillers.
In setting stained glass windows, along with putty.
As a resist to prevent glass from sticking to kiln shelves when firing glazes and paints at high temperature.
As a common ingredient for many glazes, in ceramics/glazing applications.
In the production of glossy paper, replacing kaolin.
For the purpose of purifying iron steel materials, in a blast furnace, from iron ore.
As a building material in its own right (like marble) or limestone aggregate for the purpose of road-building and construction.
For making mortar, which is used in bonding bricks, concrete blocks, stones and tiles.
As a filler material for latex gloves, as precipitated Calcium carbonate (pre-dispersed in slurry form).
As a major component of blackboard chalk.
As an inert filler for tablets and other pharmaceuticals.
As a pH corrector in swimming pools, for maintaining alkalinity buffer to offset the acidic properties of the disinfectant agent.
In the production of toothpaste.
