Precipitated Calcium Carbonate – Multifunctional Additive for PVC

Calcium carbonate is one of the most widely utilized minerals additives in several PVC applications. Ground calcium carbonates (GCC) are used mainly as fillers, while precipitated calcium carbonates (PCC) are multi-functional additives that can function as reinforcing fillers, processing aids and impact modifiers. Explore, in detail, about use of precipitated calcium carbonate in PVC formulations (rigid and plasticized) and understand how you can achieve high performance level in your applications.
