In the world of paints and coatings, Calcium Carbonate is an indispensable raw material.
By complementing the use of Titanium Dioxide, it fills the production process with vital supplements, ensuring optimal results. At our manufacturing facility, we specialize in producing a variety of particle sizes of Calcium Carbonate. This versatility allows us to cater to different qualities of paint, tailored to meet a wide range of needs.
Moreover, we go the extra mile by meticulously selecting our raw materials. This focus on quality enhances the optical values for the paint industry, resulting in powders that exhibit a brilliant white, guaranteeing exceptional paint finishes.
How to cut TiO2 usage & costs in Paints & Coatings?
Paint production is known to be costly, with Titanium Dioxide being a major contributor to the expenses. In fact, it accounts for approximately 50% of the total material costs in the manufacturing process of paints.
The primary components of paint are pigments, binders, and solvents. Pigments, such as metal chrome or iron oxides, are responsible for the color. The cost of pigments, especially for the popular color white, is significantly high due to the reliance on Titanium dioxide.
To address this, paint producers have been exploring alternatives to reduce their dependence on Titanium dioxide by incorporating white grade calcium carbonate. Depending on the specific formulation and desired color, calcium carbonate can replace up to 40% of the Titanium dioxide requirements for paint production.
By making this substitution, paint producers can lower their costs while still achieving the desired color and quality in their final products.
Key benefits of using calcium carbonate in the Paint & Coating Industry
Calcium carbonate is a highly versatile ingredient used in the paint industry for creating powder coatings and emulsion paint. Its exceptional distribution and high whiteness improve the workability of paint.
The advantages of Calcium Carbonate for Paint and Coatings:
✅Strengthens and enhances the resistance of the painting film to water, dryness, and scrubbing, while also reducing construction costs.
✅Enhances the intensity of paint color and reflection, resulting in a superior luster.
✅Improves the paint’s coverage, abrasion resistance, adhesion, impact resistance, and flexibility. ✅Increases the surface area covered by paint, enhancing its characteristics.
In the aqueous paint industry, the use of fine calcium carbonate powder is even more extensive. It prevents pigment settling, promotes excellent dispersion, and improves luster. The outstanding performance qualities of calcium carbonate have made it widely accepted in the paint industry. Additionally, calcium carbonate acts as a pigment extender in ink, providing turbidity, viscosity, and ball control. It can also be used for dyes and dispersion acid.
