Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC) is a refined, purified, or synthetic form of calcium carbonate, chemically represented as CaCO₃. Derived from lime, PCC is recognized for its brilliant white color, uniform particle size, and tailored crystal morphology—features that make it an essential additive in various industrial applications.
PCC stands apart due to its:
Versatility in Applications
High Purity and Brightness
Uniform Particle Size Distribution
Its adaptability allows customization to suit specific applications across industries, such as paints, plastics, paper, coatings, rubber, oral care, and construction chemicals.
