Key Facts
Primary Use Cases
Product Code: KIC-INO-001
Also known as: Ultra-Fine Calcium Carbonate, Micronized Limestone, Micro-GCC
Synonyms: Sub-micron CaCO3, Ultrafine Calcite Powder, High-Dispersibility Calcium Carbonate
Ultra-fine micronized calcium carbonate powder (2-5 micron) engineered for high-performance plastics, premium coatings, rubber, and adhesives in East Africa.
Available Packaging
Micronized Calcium Carbonate is an ultra-fine mineral powder processed through advanced wet/dry micro-grinding technology. Featuring tight particle size control and ultra-high brightness (97%+), it acts as a specialty reinforcing filler and functional extender in high-spec industrial applications.
Ultra-pure calcite mineral milled to sub-5 micron particle size. High chemical purity (99.0% CaCO3 min, Fe2O3 < 0.03%) eliminates color contamination and degradation in sensitive polymer, paper, and coating matrices.
Specify your required micron top-cut (e.g. 2 micron, 5 micron) for application-tailored batch selection.
Commercial Sectors
Kenya's plastics and PVC conversion sector—producing water pipes, electrical conduits, packaging films, and molded components—depends on precise compounding chemistry. Processing heat degradation, poor filler dispersion, and polymer brittleness can halt high-speed extrusion lines. KIKI'S supplies premium calcium carbonate extenders, plasticizers, lubricants, and PVC solvent cement reagents to leading converters.
Kenya's paints, decorative coatings, and wood finish manufacturing industry requires pure virgin solvents, high-brightness extender pigments, and specialized coalescing aids. A formulation is only as good as its raw materials: low-purity thinners cause pinholing and blushing, while coarse fillers destroy gloss and opacity. KIKI'S supplies premium solvents, extenders, and binders to East Africa's leading paint makers.
Process Compatibility
Store in sealed original packaging in dry, moisture-controlled storage areas to preserve powder fluidity.
Fine particulate matter can airborne easily. Dust extraction system and P2 dust respirators recommended during bulk charging.
Flush eyes with abundant water. Move individual to fresh air if dust inhaled.
