Industrial minerals have become a symbol of wealth and calcium carbonate has gained quite a significance and has application in the industry. Calcium Carbonate is a non-toxic, inodorous, white color powder and one of the most versatile inorganic filler. Calcium carbonate is neutral and insoluble in water and soluble in acid. Calcium carbonate powder is commonly used in a number of paint and coating applications. It is used as a dilution, an agent to either reduce or enhance gloss. Ashirvad Talc is one of the leading manufacture and supplier of a wide range of Calcium Carbonate powder for Paints and other industries in and out of the city. Moreover, calcium carbonate as a filler improves the final finish strength of the material.
Calcium carbonate is abundantly taken into use in paint industries for the manufacturing of the Powder coatings and the Emulsion Paint. With its ideal distribution and high whiteness, the calcium carbonate powder enhances the workability features of the paint.
Uses of Calcium Carbonate for Paint
- The inclusion of calcium carbonate in the paint can cause the relatively dense lithopone to stay in suspension and not sink to the bottom.
- It can improve the strength, water resistance, dryness, and scrub resistance of the painting film and also dresses the cost of the construct.
- The use of calcium carbonate powder in paints can significantly increase the paint’s color intensity and reflection and thereby enhancing the luster.
- It also improves the covering ability, abrasion resistance, adhesion, impact resistance, and flexibility when used in paint.
- Calcium carbonate powder improves the characteristics of the paint and increases the surface area covered by the paint.
The fine calcium carbonate powder is used even more extensively in the aqueous paint industry. It can prevent the pigment from settling, promote good dispersion, and improve luster. The performance intensifying qualities have ensured the large scale acceptance of calcium carbonate in the paint industry. Calcium carbonate is the pigment that extends in ink, providing turbidity, viscosity, and ball control. They can also be used as dyes and dispersion acid.
Key benefits of using calcium carbonate in the Paint Industry:
- Increase opacity and Porosity .
- Enhances Precess ability characteristics
- mproves gloss and quality
- Reduces the cost of the maintenance
- Adding Calcium carbonate powder to plastic products also increases its surface printability.
Calcium carbonate powder is also used in the paint industry as an extender/ spreader for increasing opacity. Not only in the paint industry but calcium carbonate is also used as a filler and extender in many other different industries. Our range of calcium carbonate powder is of high quality and can be used in a different number of other applications. The calcium carbonate powder is an anti-settling agent and also an opacifying agent which enhances the gloss and stability characteristics of the paint.
