Minerios Ouro Branco Precipitated Calcium Carbonate is chemically inert and is obtained by reacting a solution of calcium chloride with a solution of sodium carbonate, or by passing carbon dioxide through a suspension of lime milk. It is presented in medium, light and extra light types, differentiated only by granulometry, with the medium being the thickest and the extra light being the finest. Precipitated Calcium Carbonate is white, fine, odorless, insoluble, light, porous powder with high oil absorption.

- Recommended Applications
- Paint applications
- Load widely used in all paint systems, with the exception of bicomponent systems that use acids for polymerization and curing, helps to improve the abrasion resistance of the film, but decreases its flexibility, low coverage power, base for mass production, demarcation paints, real estate paints, etc.
- Plastics application
- Widely used in thermoplastic resins, mainly in masterbatchs such as TiO2 extender, it gives the processed plastic excellent opacity and surface finish.
- General applications
- It is used in the manufacture of flexographic, textile, real estate, plastics, rubber, as a product vehicle, in obtaining calcium and carbon dioxide, in neutralizing acids, correcting soils, etc.
- Plastics and Elastomers Functions
- Filler
- Incompatible Materials or Substances
Ammonium acids and salts, undergoes oxidation by ultraviolet and reaction with the infiltration of acid rain transforming into calcium sulfate.
