What is Calcium Carbonate?
Calcium Carbonate is an alkali metal carbonate which is usually found in rocks around all the elements of the earth. It is the main ingredient in the appearance of marine animals such as pearls, snails, briquettes and eggshells. Calcium carbonate powder is used in a wide range of industrial and commercial applications because of its many special properties. It also benefits human and animal health as well as the environment.
Characteristics
Calcium carbonate is an odorless, white, fine powder that exists in various crystal forms. Calcium carbonate has a relative density of 2.5-2.7 and is practically insoluble in water and ethanol, but soluble in less dense acids (acetic acid, less dense hydrochloric acid and nitric acid).
Types
Heavy Calcium Carbonate
Light Calcium Carbonate
Activated Calcium Carbonate
Cosmetics
Calcium carbonate is used as a filler in cosmetics, especially color cosmetics. Calcium carbonate in powder form also helps to absorb excess oil from the skin. Examples include talcum powder, eye shadows, powders and foundations. Cosmetic grade calcium carbonate is also used as an antiperspirant deodorant.
Healthcare
In addition to providing calcium, calcium carbonate also plays a buffering role in stabilizing the change of PH value during the fermentation culture process, so calcium carbonate has become a buffer for microbial fermentation in the pharmaceutical industry. In pharmaceutical reagents, calcium carbonate is generally used as a filler and plays a certain insecticidal role in antacid tablets. Calcium carbonate is also used in modern calcium supplement health food industry, is a high-quality nutritional fortification additives.
Food
Calcium carbonate is commonly used as a food additive, acting as a food fortifier and improver in foods. For example, it is added to food products such as baking mixes, doughs, dry dessert mixes, toothpaste and wine. Processed foods and beverages can easily and efficiently add calcium while maintaining flavor because of the unique particle shape and smaller particles formed during the production of calcium carbonate.
Others
In agriculture it is used as a feed additive for dairy cows, as an antimicrobial agent and as a feed fortifier. In construction calcium carbonate helps to make the mortar used to bind bricks, concrete blocks, stones, roof tiles, rubber compounds and ceramic tiles. Calcium carbonate decomposes to produce carbon dioxide and lime, an important material in the manufacture of steel, glass and paper. Because of its acid resistance, calcium carbonate is used in industrial settings to neutralize acids in soil and water.
