Calcium carbonate is a versatile and widely used chemical compound with the molecular formula CaCO3. It is a naturally occurring mineral that is commonly found in various geological formations, including limestone, chalk, and marble. Calcium carbonate is valued for its numerous applications across various industries.



Physical Properties: Calcium carbonate is typically available as a fine white powder or as granules. It has a relatively low Mohs hardness of 3, making it a soft mineral. This compound is virtually insoluble in water but can dissolve in acids with the release of carbon dioxide gas.



Key Applications: Calcium carbonate has a broad range of applications, thanks to its unique properties:



Paper Industry: It is extensively used as a filler and coating pigment in the paper industry to improve brightness, opacity, and smoothness of paper products.



Paints and Coatings: Calcium carbonate is a common ingredient in paints, coatings, and primers, enhancing their durability and providing excellent coverage.



Plastics and Rubber: In the plastics and rubber industries, it acts as a reinforcing agent, improving stiffness and impact resistance in polymer products.



Construction: Calcium carbonate is employed in the construction industry as a building material, particularly in the production of cement, concrete, and mortar.



Pharmaceuticals: It is used as an antacid in pharmaceuticals to relieve symptoms of heartburn and indigestion.



Food and Beverages: Calcium carbonate is an approved food additive (E170) used as a dietary calcium supplement, pH regulator, and anti-caking agent in various food and beverage products.



Environmental Remediation: It plays a role in the treatment of acidic mine drainage and as a soil conditioner in agriculture.



Environmental Benefits: Calcium carbonate can contribute to environmental sustainability by neutralizing acidic soils, reducing the carbon footprint in paper production, and aiding in water purification processes.
