Natural Calcium Carbonate
and Dolomite has also established itself as an ideal filler
for paints and Power Coatings.
A high degree of whiteness,
weather resistance, inertness, low abrasiveness, a high hiding
power, and a pH stabilizing effect are among its decisive
advantages.
Binder concentration
can be regulated via particle shape and packing density, while
opacity depends on particle fineness and particle size distribution.
Hydrophobic calcites also improve the corrosion-inhibition
and rheological properties of coating systems.
A focal point in application
technology research is the development of a new generation
of extremely fine nature calcites which do not reagglomerate.
Their primary particle diameter lies close to the theoretical
maximum so that the optimized fillers can replace expensive
white pigments.
Coating systems with high packing densities
are involved in another development thrust. Here, shorter curing
times are achieved due to the capillary effect. This is particularly
important in water-based paints.
Distempers
& Cement Paints :
20 Microns
has been revolutionizing the concept of using Micronised fine
ground Calcium carbonate and Dolomite for use in Distemper
wall paints as against the persistent use of mesh products
for the same. The pricing of the micronised calcium carbonate
and dolomites are kept in tandem with the price policy of
the end paint industry so the formulation cost does not increase
to a great extent.
