Calcite Powder

Calcite powder offered by us are widely used as mineral fillers in order to obtain a high humidity retention, to improve the consistency and dryness of the final mass. Furthermore, they do not alter neither the physical nor the chemical properties of soap products, nor the viscosity of the mix. The calcite powder offered by us helps to improve the cleaning action of soaps and detergents due to an adequate grade of abrasiveness. It is not retained by the textile fibers since they do not contain silica in a free stage and hence not cause damage to the fabrics. Our calcite powder is also used as secondary pigment.

Our calcite powder is widely used in plastics as a filler due to its high dispersibility, low oil absorption, high impact resistance, smooth surface finish, easy processing and excellent dimensional stability. Our calcite powder is indispensable for delustration of naturally transparent man-made fibers for instance and guarantee high color intensities and whiteness in plastic components.

We offer calcite powder, which provide a greater covering strength, thus increasing the performance of high quality paints, oil synthetic and other coatings. The excellent whiteness of our carbonates avoid interference with the paint’s colors and contribute to their opacity and that the paint will cover, without dripping, the surfaces.
