Calcium Carbonate
Calcium Carbonate General specification
Calcium Carbonate is a white, odorless powder or colorless crystals. Practically insoluble in water. Occurs extensive in rocks world-wide. Ground calcium carbonate, results directly from the mining of limestone. The extraction process keeps the carbonate very close to its original state of purity and delivers a finely ground product either in dry or slurry form. Precipitated calcium carbonate, is produced industrially by the decomposition of limestone to calcium oxide followed by subsequent recarbonization or as a by-product of the Solvay process (which is used to make sodium carbonate).
Calcium Carbonate Applications
Calcium Carbonate is using in a wide range from health benefits to industries.
Health benefits: Calcium Carbonate as Calcium supplements, dietary supplement.
Industrial applications: Calcium carbonate is used in the purification and separation of iron from its ore; it is often used in swimming pools for maintaining the alkalinity of water, calcium carbonate increases the density of drilling fluids. Calcium carbonate is also used in industries like paint, plastic, paper, rubber, ceramic, cement, glass, garden lime, steel and oil refining.
Calcium Carbonate Packing
Our calcium carbonate is supplying in lumps and powder types from 200 to 2500 mesh, calcium carbonate is offered in Jumbo bag, 25 or 50 kg sacks, palletizing and shrinkage is possible, as well.
Calcium Carbonate Exporting Destinations
Calcium carbonate , mostly offered by customers who are applying in health, drilling, cement, glass steel and oil refining, industries. So, we are exporting Calcium carbonate to Middle East, East Asian and CIS countries. Calcium carbonate is producing, packing and exporting to mention above destinations, under Iran Chemical Mine authorization by the best Calcium carbonate raw materials in accordance with ASTM standard.
