Precipitated Calcium Carbonate
Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC) is a synthetic form of calcium carbonate, created by a chemical process that involves transforming limestone into fine, pure powder. It appears as a white, powdery substance and is widely used in products like paper, plastics, paints, and sealants to improve strength, brightness, and smoothness. PCC’s controlled production process allows for specific particle sizes and shapes, making it versatile for various industrial applications. Because it is pure and free of impurities, it provides consistent quality, making it a valuable additive across many manufacturing sectors.
