Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC)

Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC) is a refined form of calcium carbonate, a white mineral commonly found in nature. It is produced by chemically reacting calcium hydroxide with carbon dioxide to create tiny, pure crystals. PCC is valued for its controlled particle size and brightness, making it useful in various industries, including paper, plastics, paints, and pharmaceuticals. Its applications range from enhancing the quality of products to acting as a filler or a coating. Because of its versatility, PCC is an important material in manufacturing and construction.
