Ground Calcium Carbonate (GCC) Manufacturing Business. Production of Ground Calcium Carbonate with 90% Brightness and Whiteness and > 90% CaCO3
Calcium carbonate is one of the most abundantly occurring minerals on earth and composes nearly four percent of earth’s crust. It exists naturally in the form of limestone, marbles and chalk formed by sedimentation over a period of time. It is one of the most versatile compounds and finds a variety of applications across a diverse set of industries including construction, steel, and agrochemicals among others.
Advantages of Ground Calcium Carbonate
•GCC is cheaper and it has high brightness.
•GCC creates a porous surface on the paper sheet due to its rhombohedral particle shape.
•GCC is hydrophobic as a result it is liberate water more rapidly.
•Improve printability
•Lower binder demand
