Calcium Carbonate Heavy

Industrial grade material.Will comes in polypack or corrugated box packaging.

Calcium Carbonate Heavy is a fine, white powder that is a form of calcium carbonate with a higher density compared to other forms like precipitated calcium carbonate. It is commonly used in various industrial applications due to its chemical stability and high purity. Calcium Carbonate Heavy is often used as a filler, pigment, or extender in a wide range of products.

Application:

Calcium Carbonate Heavy is used in a variety of industries:

• Paper Industry: Used as a filler and coating pigment to improve brightness, opacity, and printability of paper products.
• Plastics and Rubber: Acts as a filler and reinforcement agent in plastics and rubber products, enhancing physical properties and reducing costs.
• Paints and Coatings: Used as a pigment and extender to improve the consistency, durability, and finish of paints and coatings.
• Construction: Employed in the production of cement and concrete as a filler and to adjust the properties of construction materials.
• Pharmaceuticals and Food: Utilized as a calcium supplement and as a neutralizing agent in certain medications and food products.

Handling:

• Personal Protection: Use standard PPE, including gloves, safety goggles, and a dust mask or respirator to avoid inhalation of dust.
• Ventilation: Handle in a well-ventilated area or use local exhaust ventilation to minimize dust exposure.
• Hygiene: Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Wash hands thoroughly after handling to prevent accidental ingestion or skin irritation.

Storage:

• Conditions: Store in a cool, dry place, away from moisture and incompatible substances such as strong acids. Ensure containers are tightly sealed to prevent contamination and moisture absorption.
• Labeling: Clearly label containers with the chemical name and appropriate hazard information.
• Disposal: Dispose of in accordance with local, regional, and national regulations. Typically, Calcium Carbonate Heavy can be disposed of as non-hazardous waste, but check with local guidelines for specific disposal procedures.

Safety Notes:

Calcium Carbonate Heavy is generally safe to handle, but exposure to dust can cause respiratory irritation. Ingestion of large quantities can cause gastrointestinal discomfort. Proper handling practices and safety measures should be followed to avoid health risks and environmental impact. Always refer to Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) or Safety Data Sheets (SDS) for detailed safety and handling instructions.
