CALCIUM CARBONATE POWDER

What Is Calcium Carbonate?

Calcium carbonate is a white powder produced through physical methods from sources such as calcite, limestone, dolomite, chalk, and shells. It appears as a gray-white or dark brown granular solid, slightly acidic, with high purity and stable composition. This material is a crucial chemical raw material, extensively used in various industries, and serves as one of the most common fillers.

Types Of Calcium Carbonate

Calcium carbonate is derived from various natural sources, each with unique properties that influence the quality and characteristics of the final product. The primary types include:

Limestone

The Calcium carbonate deposited in the lake and sea, after losing water, is compressed and cemented to form a rock called limestone. Its Mohs hardness is less than 3, which is a medium-hardness ore. Egypt, Pakistan, and several other countries have extensive limestone deposits, making it a primary raw material for heavy Calcium carbonate production in these regions. material.

Calcite

Calcite is most commonly found in natural Calcium carbonates. Therefore, calcite is a widely distributed mineral. Calcite has a variety of crystal shapes. Their aggregates can be clusters of crystals, or granular, massive, fibrous, stalactite, earthy, and so on.

Marble

Its main component is Calcium carbonate, accounting for more than 50%. It comes in many colors and usually has a distinct pattern. The Mohs hardness is between 2.5 and 5. Because it has various colors and is very beautiful after polishing, it is also often used as a decorative material in the construction industry.

Chalk

Chalk is a fine deposit of Calcium carbonate, a variant of calcite. Originally formed deep in the ocean floor through the compression of tiny plankton that settled to the seafloor.
