Submaterial
- Additive
Properties
- General use
Processing
- Extrusion
- Injection molding
- Thermoforming
Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) additives for plastics are used to enhance mechanical properties such as strength and stiffness, as well as to reduce production costs. Adding CaCO3 to plastic can also improve processing properties like thermal conductivity and cooling speed, allowing for faster production. Additionally, calcium carbonate increases the opacity and whiteness of the plastic, which is beneficial for the manufacture of various plastic products.
