Calcium Carbonate in Paint Applications
Calcium carbonate Plant
Calcium carbonate reduces the opacity or hiding power of paints and is useful for their bulking properties. Depending on particle size calcium carbonate can be used to decrease and control gloss levels, a useful feature in matt paints. We have a full range of particle sizes and in some locations produce calcium carbonates slurries which offer the paint maker processing efficiencies and the opportunity to lower the paint formulation cost.
Calcium carbonate crushing & grinding machine
Crushing machine is necessary to get calcium carbonate. As a professional mining equipment manufacturer, Gulin can supply primary crusher, secondary crusher and tertiary crusher for you.
The crushing equipment is: jaw crusher, impact crusher, cone crusher (Symons) etc. We also supply portable crusher and mobile crusher for calcium carbonate process line. Our crushing equipment also is used to crush the limestone, marble stone, dolomite rock, coke, graphite, etc.
Calcium carbonate processing
Calcium carbonates are composed of the crystalline mineral, calcite, which occurs naturally in the form of chalk, marble or limestone. Chalk is usually finely textured and is relatively impure. Marble deposits are limestone’s changed by recrystallisation under conditions of extreme heat and pressure. In some cases, this natural process yields pure marble of exceptional whiteness, such as the famous deposits of Carrere in Northern Italy. Calcium carbonates are widely used as extenders in a variety of coatings.
The Moth’s hardness of calcium carbonate is 3, which means calcium carbonate is easy to crushing, in a whole calcium carbonate crushing process line, we provide jaw crusher for primary crushing, and impact crusher or cone crusher for fine crushing. We provide two types of jaw crusher, PE Jaw crusher and PEW jaw crusher which is an advanced jaw crusher, we provide two types of impact crushers, and four types of cone crusher. Besides, we also provide mobile crushing plant for calcium carbonate crushing processing.
