Product Description
Multi Minerals Micronised Calcite is distinguished by it extremely high whiteness, purity and free flowing nature. It is widely used as filler due to its high dispersibility, low oil absorption, high impact resistance, smooth surface finish, easy processing, compatibility with polymers, other organic additives and excellent dimensional stability. We offer Paper Grade Calcium Carbonate Powder with varied packing options at feasible prices. This powder is processed under the visionary guidance of qualified professionals by utilizing the excellent quality raw material with the help of pioneering technology. Exceptional Brightness and PurityThe calcium carbonate powder offers an outstanding minimum brightness of 96% and a whiteness index of at least 98%. This guarantees luminous paper surfaces, optimal for publishing and packaging applications. Thanks to 99% purity, the powder imparts high opacity and vibrant printability without compromising on strength or durability.
Versatile Particle Size and Low AbrasivenessWith particle size customizable between 2 and 10 microns and low Mohs hardness (3), the powder blends seamlessly into paper pulp. Low abrasiveness ensures that machinery endures less wear, and the uniform, micronized texture leads to a consistent finish across various paper types, from fine writing sheets to specialty boards.
Reliable Storage and Safe HandlingPacked in durable 25/50 kg HDPE bags or jumbo bags, Paper Grade Calcium Carbonate Powder remains protected from moisture and contaminants. Its odorless, tasteless, and non-poisonous formulation makes it safe to handle in manufacturing environments. To preserve its qualities, store in a cool, dry area away from humidity.
FAQ's of Paper Grade Calcium Carbonate Powder:
Q: How is Paper Grade Calcium Carbonate Powder used in paper manufacturing?
A: This powder acts as both a filler and coating pigment in paper production. It is blended or coated onto paper to increase brightness, opacity, smoothness, and print quality, making the final products suitable for high-end printing and packaging.
Q: What benefits does this calcium carbonate offer to the paper industry?
A: It offers enhanced brightness, high whiteness, improved printability, increased opacity, and a smoother finish. The low abrasiveness also protects production machinery, while consistent particle distribution ensures uniform quality in processed paper.
Q: When should I opt for customizable particle size?
A: Customizable particle size (2-10 microns) is ideal when you need to tailor paper properties for specific applications, such as specialty papers requiring precise smoothness or opacity, or when adjusting for different printing technologies.
Q: Where can Paper Grade Calcium Carbonate Powder be stored safely?
A: Store the product in a cool, dry place away from direct moisture and contaminants. Utilize the provided HDPE bags or jumbo bags for best results and to maintain powder integrity.
Q: What is the process for incorporating calcium carbonate powder into paper production?
A: The powder is either mixed with paper pulp as a filler or applied to the surface as a coating. Both processes involve blending the powder until a uniform dispersion is achieved in the manufacturing line, maximizing the enhancements in paper brightness and printability.
Q: How does the powder's low oil absorption and uniform particle size benefit paper production?
A: Low oil absorption allows for easy mixing and handling during manufacturing, while the uniform particle size ensures a smooth application, leading to even, high-quality sheets with minimal defects.
