Calcium Carbonate Market Analysis

The high demand for calcium carbonate as plastic filler is mainly driving the market growth. Calcium carbonate is highly used in the plastics industry as a plastic filler, usually in the form of white granules. Plastic filler, which is mainly composed of calcium carbonate and base resin, is preferred as calcium carbonate is abundant and easy to obtain. Also, it improves the physical properties of plastic. In addition, calcium carbonate is not harmful to the environment.

Calcium Carbonate Market Overview

Calcium carbonate is a chemical compound with the molecular formula CaCO3, consisting of calcium, carbon, and oxygen. It is commonly found in nature as a mineral and is the main component of various rocks, such as limestone, marble, and chalk. Calcium carbonate is widely used in various industries and applications due to its versatile properties. It is a white, odorless powder that is insoluble in water but can dissolve in acids. It serves as a dietary supplement for calcium and is utilized as a filler or pigment in the production of paper, plastics, paints, and coatings. In addition, it is employed majorly in the manufacturing of cement and ceramics.
