Natural Calcium Carbonate For PVC Pipe Industries

PVC is a versatile polymer well suited for a variety of pipe applications ranging from large sewer piping to residential drain waste vent piping, as well as smaller potable water piping and electrical conduit. Calcium carbonate contribute to the ultimate performance properties of this wide variety of piping applications. For maximum property development and formulation flexibility, surface-treated carbonates are designed to give good dispersion along with excellent incorporation in the polymer matrix. It improves the base properties of polyvinyl chloride by adding stiffness to the polymer matrix and improving impact resistance as particle sizes become smaller.
