Product Description
As the name implies, our offered Calcium Carbonate Powder is widely used in the making of Rubber & Elastomers. The mentioned powder is a natural inorganic compound and is widely known by the name limestone, marble or chalk. This powder is prepared using the chemical synthesis of calcium oxide and water that produces calcium hydroxide. This by product is then treated with carbon dioxide to obtain Calcium Carbonate as by product.
Uses of Calcium Carbonate Powder:
- Used in building material, ceramic tiles, paints, sealants, blackboard chalk, oil well drilling fluids and many more.
- In medical applications, is used for making calcium dietary supplements for being used in hemodialysis treatment.
- Finds usage as food preservative in the toothpastes
- Also used for producing calcium oxide

FAQ's of Rubber & Elastomers Grade Calcium Carbonate Powder:
Q: How is Rubber & Elastomers Grade Calcium Carbonate Powder typically used in manufacturing?
A: This calcium carbonate powder is incorporated into rubber, latex, elastomers, and plastic formulations as a filler, reinforcing agent, and cost reducer. Its fine particle size enhances mechanical properties, increases bulk, and improves surface finish in final products.
Q: What are the main benefits of using this grade of calcium carbonate in rubber and elastomer products?
A: It improves mechanical strength, increases volume without compromising quality, and delivers a smoother surface finish. Additionally, its high whiteness and consistent particle size ensure excellent aesthetic and functional properties in finished goods.
Q: When should manufacturers select this specific grade of calcium carbonate?
A: Manufacturers should choose this grade when they seek high purity, precise particle size (2-5 microns), and low moisture content, especially for rubber, latex, and elastomer applications that require enhanced physical properties and reliable, consistent performance.
Q: Where can this calcium carbonate powder be stored for optimal freshness and longevity?
A: The powder should be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from moisture, to maintain its 24-month shelf life and prevent clumping or degradation.
Q: What is the process for mixing this calcium carbonate powder into rubber or elastomer compounds?
A: The powder is added during the initial mixing stage of rubber or polymer processing. Its excellent dispersion properties ensure uniform distribution throughout the matrix, maximizing its reinforcing effect and ensuring product consistency.
Q: How is the product packaged for bulk orders and safe storage?
A: Standard packaging is in 25 or 50 kg HDPE bags with inner liners to protect against moisture. For higher volume needs, jumbo bags are available on request, ensuring safe handling and transport over long distances.
