PCC is an essential component in the paper industry as it improves the brightness, opacity and smoothness of paper. It is also used as a coating pigment that enhances the printability of paper and minimizes the use of costly wood pulp. Also, PCC assists in attaining a smooth surface that is favourable for printing and also assists in increasing the durability and stability of the paper by limiting ink absorption.
In the plastics industry, PCC strengthens materials, enhancing their tensile and impact properties. It also serves the purpose of reducing the cost of the product by using less polymer resin while still offering quality. The addition of PCC to plastics also increases the thermal stability of the material for use in automotive and packaging applications.
PCC is commonly used in paints as a white pigment enhancing the brightness, opacity and smoothness of the final product. It also acts as a flow control agent, thus enhancing the paint’s viscosity and its ability to be applied. PCC enhances the flow of paint during application, thus ensuring a better finish and also improves the life of the paint through better protection against weathering.
PCC improves the mechanical characteristics of rubber products, including tensile strength and abrasion resistance. It enhances the properties of rubber products when added to rubber formulations. PCC also improves the processing properties of the rubber as it enhances its moldability and it also helps in cost reduction by replacing other costly materials.
In pharmaceuticals, PCC is an active ingredient in antacids to neutralize stomach acid. It is also employed as a calcium supplement in several products. Due to the high purity and narrow particle size distribution of PCC, it can be dosed accurately in medications, and it is also employed in tablet formulations to enhance compressibility and stability.
PCC is used in the food industry as a food additive to add calcium to food products and drinks. It also has uses in food processing as an anti-caking agent and dough conditioner. PCC in food products is beneficial in achieving the right texture and preventing the formation of lumps and is also known to be safe and efficient in improving nutritional value.
PCC is an essential component in cosmetics and is employed as an opacifier, thickener, and mild abrasive. It is commonly used in products such as toothpaste, creams and lotions. Due to its fine and silky nature, PCC is suitable for use in skincare products to give a smooth feel and it also helps in the whitening of the toothpaste.
In construction, PCC is incorporated into cement and concrete to increase its strength, durability and ease of handling. It also enhances the aesthetic look of decorative concrete products and their whiteness. Fine particles of PCC aid in rendering a smooth finish on the surface of concrete and also enhance the concrete’s ability to withstand cracks and other forms of damage.
PCC is applied in automotive polishes and compounds as a gentle abrasive to eliminate surface imperfections and give an enhanced shiny look to the car's surface. Its application in the automotive industry is also to increase the life of the paint by preventing scratches and wear as well as to improve the appearance of the paint by making it glossy and rich in appearance.
