Calcium Carbonate Precipitated
Calcium Carbonate Precipitated (PCC) is a form of calcium carbonate that is created through a chemical process where calcium ions and carbonate ions are combined. This action causes solid calcium carbonate to form and settle out of a solution. PCC is valued for its purity, fine particle size, and versatility, making it useful in various industries. It's commonly used in products like paper, plastics, paints, and even food items as a calcium supplement. Unlike natural calcium carbonate, PCC can be engineered to specific shapes and sizes to meet particular needs in manufacturing and formulation.
