Calcite introduction
Calcite is the essential mineral of marble and limestone, and widely using in daily product. The calcite is a kind of calcium carbonate mineral, the most natural calcium carbonate it is. Therefore, calcite is a kind of a very wide distribution of minerals. The calcite crystals shape varied, they can be the aggregation of crystal, also can be granular, massive, fibrous, clock emulsion, soil shape, etc. Knock calcite can get many square pieces. The calcite color vary for different impurities, for example, when the calcite contains ferrimanganic, it appears as pale yellow, light kermes, brown black, but generally more white or colorless.
Iceland spar of calcite
Colorless transparent calcite also called iceland spar. Iceland spar is important optical materials; it is often used in polarizing prism, such as certain way to cutting columnar shape and used as prism of microscope. Its quality requirements must be: colorless transparent, internal excluding bubbles or crack, not with double crystal or distorted, and 0.5 inch (12.5 mm) cubic above.
Calcite powder application
The calcite powder or says KCL powder used for man-made stone, artificial floor tile, natural rubber, synthetic rubber, coating, plastic, composite plastic, cable, new calcium papermaking, toothpaste, cosmetics, glass, medicine, paint, ink, cable, electric insulation, food, textile, feed, adhesives, sealants, asphalt, building materials, linoleum building supplies, fireproof the ceiling and daily chemical products for stuffing. Using calcite powder not only can reduce the various sectors of the product cost, which can improve the function and performance of related products, and increase product volume, it is one of the most widely used as inorganic stuffing.
General calcite used in chemical industry, cement and other industrial raw materials. The calcite is used as flux in metallurgical industry, while used to produce cement and lime in the building industry. Except, the calcite powder is widely used in plastics, paper, toothpaste and food additives for filling.
Calcite powder used for dentifrice toothpaste
Calcite powder is the most element of dentifrice toothpaste, especially in past. From the calcite raw stone to the calcite powder, SBM can do the all measure. Firstly, we can use crusher machine to crush the calcite raw material to small stone. Then the crushed the stones sent to the super thin mill to grind, after the grinding machine grind the stones, the granule size of calcite powder reach about 600 mesh, then it can be use for processing toothpaste.
