Key Facts
Primary Use Cases
Product Code: KIC-PLAS-001
Also known as: PVC Filler, Coated Calcium Carbonate, Stearic Acid Treated CaCO3
Synonyms: Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC), Surface Modified Limestone, Plastic Extrusion Filler
Surface-treated coated calcium carbonate filler optimized for PVC pipe extrusion, masterbatches, profile compounding, and thermoplastic manufacturing in Kenya.
Available Packaging
Calcium Carbonate for Plastic & PVC Manufacturing acts as a functional filler that reduces resin consumption while enhancing impact strength, dimensional stability, heat resistance, and surface finish in rigid PVC pipes, fittings, conduit, cable compounds, and masterbatches.
Micro-ground calcium carbonate surface-modified with stearic acid coupling agents to ensure superior hydrophobic dispersion in PVC, Polyethylene (PE), and Polypropylene (PP) matrices. Low oil absorption minimizes plasticizer consumption.
Specify whether stearic acid coated or uncoated grade is required for your extrusion or compounding line.
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.
Process Compatibility
Store in clean, dry ambient conditions. Avoid exposure to high humidity or moisture which can cause caking and affect dispersion in polymer melts.
Dust mask and protective eyewear recommended during powder transfer to extruder hoppers.
Flush eyes thoroughly with clean water. Remove to fresh air if inhaled.

COMMERCIAL & TECHNICAL GUIDANCE
Technical, regulatory, and supply guidance for Calcium Carbonate for Plastic & PVC Pipe Extrusion Manufacturing.
Stearic acid surface coating renders the hydrophilic mineral hydrophobic, allowing perfect dispersion in PVC resin matrix without agglomeration, reducing extruder torque and screw wear.
