Calcite Powder Precipitated Grade
Synthetic calcite powder produced by a carbonation process, chemically equivalent to natural calcite but with higher purity. It is a separate chemically defined compound of calcium carbonate, meeting the requirements of Chapter 28 Note 1(a). Applications include toothpaste abrasives and optical coatings.
2836.50.00Calcium Carbonate for Animal Feed
Coarse calcium carbonate powder (200-400 mesh) fortified for use as a calcium source in poultry and livestock feed. It is a separate chemically defined compound of calcium carbonate, meeting Chapter 28 Note 1(a), and is not excluded by Chapter 28 Note 3. It meets AAFCO nutritional specifications for animal feed.
2836.50.00Calcium Carbonate Precipitate for Toothpaste
Precipitated calcium carbonate with a controlled abrasivity index for use in premium toothpaste formulations. It is a separate chemically defined compound of calcium carbonate, meeting Chapter 28 Note 1(a). Provides cleaning action without excessive enamel wear.
2836.50.00Coated Calcium Carbonate Stearic Acid
Calcium carbonate particles surface-treated with stearic acid to impart hydrophobic properties, with the coating comprising less than 5% of the total weight. The coating is a stabilizer or processing aid that does not render the product particularly suitable for a specific use, so it remains classified as calcium carbonate under Chapter 28 Note 1(e). Used in polyolefin films and sheets.
2836.50.00Dry Ground Marble Calcium Carbonate
Micronized calcium carbonate derived from Italian Carrara marble via dry grinding, valued for its chemical purity. It is a separate chemically defined compound of calcium carbonate, meeting Chapter 28 Note 1(a). Used as a premium filler in adhesives and sealants.
2836.50.00Food Grade Calcium Carbonate E170
Food grade calcium carbonate (E170) used as an acidity regulator, anticaking agent, and calcium source in food products. It is a separate chemically defined compound of calcium carbonate, meeting Chapter 28 Note 1(a), and is not excluded by Chapter 28 Note 3. Meets FCC standards for direct food contact applications.
2836.50.00Ground Calcium Carbonate (GCC) Powder
Ground calcium carbonate (GCC) powder derived from high-purity limestone, micronized to a fine powder. It is a separate chemically defined compound of calcium carbonate, meeting Chapter 28 Note 1(a). Used in pharmaceuticals and food supplements as a calcium source.
2836.50.00Heavy Calcium Carbonate 1250 Mesh
Ultra-fine heavy calcium carbonate (D97<4.5μm) produced by grinding marble, used as an industrial filler. It is a separate chemically defined compound of calcium carbonate, meeting Chapter 28 Note 1(a). Applications include PVC pipes, masterbatches, and powder coatings.
2836.50.00High Purity Synthetic Calcium Carbonate
High purity synthetic calcium carbonate (99.9% pure) produced via controlled precipitation for electronic ceramics and high-voltage insulators. It is a separate chemically defined compound of calcium carbonate, meeting Chapter 28 Note 1(a). Ultra-low impurity levels are critical for dielectric properties.
