High-end calcium carbonate powder becomes a new market trend in the future

Guangxi Longhua Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3) products are divided into Guangxi Longhua precipitated calcium carbonate and Guangxi Longhua light calcium carbonate. They are important inorganic chemical products, widely used as fillers in plastics, paper, coatings, rubber, toothpaste, etc., due to their low price, abundant raw materials, and non-toxicity.

The calcium carbonate industry is developing vigorously

In recent years, China's calcium carbonate industry has developed vigorously. While market demand continues to increase, technological levels have also developed upwards. The level of refinement and functionalization of China's heavy calcium products is not high. Heavy calcium products with a mesh size of 200-325μm account for 50%, 325-1250μm for 35%, and over 1250μm for 15%, of which only about 12% are modified.

What are some high-value applications of calcium carbonate? Let's take a look!

Guangxi Longhua calcium carbonate, as a superior filler, has advantages such as whiteness, purity, easy coloring, stable chemical properties, low cost, and controllable particle size and shape. It has been successfully applied in rubber, plastics, coatings, inks, and papermaking. However, in these traditional applications, the added value of calcium carbonate products is not high, and enterprises often rely on "quantity to win" for profit. The demand for functional products such as nano-calcium or high-purity calcium carbonate still relies on imports.

Calcium carbonate is one of the most common substances in nature. In industrial production, calcium carbonate is divided into heavy calcium carbonate and light calcium carbonate. Among them, light calcium carbonate is calcium carbonate prepared by chemical methods after calcination and purification of natural limestone; while heavy calcium carbonate is physical heavy calcium carbonate obtained from natural calcium carbonate ore through mechanical grinding and a grading system. The performance of the product is greatly related to the type of the original ore and the production process.

So the nano calcium carbonate filler has such powerful functions!

Nanomaterials are materials that have at least one dimension in the range of 0.1-100 nm in three-dimensional space, or are composed of such materials as basic units. Due to the surface and interface effects, size effects, quantum size effects, and macroscopic quantum tunneling effects of nanomaterials, they have good applications in various fields. Modifying some basic materials using nanotechnology may produce unexpected changes.
