Paper Grade refers to chemicals and additives specifically formulated for use in the pulp and paper manufacturing industry. These substances are designed to enhance paper quality, optimize production processes, and improve functional properties such as strength, brightness, smoothness, and resistance to water or aging. Common paper-grade chemicals include bleaching agents (like hydrogen peroxide or chlorine dioxide), fillers (such as calcium carbonate or kaolin), sizing agents (e.g., rosin or alkyl ketene dimer), and retention aids (like polyacrylamides) They may contain tailored additives to control pH, reduce foaming, or enhance dye adhesion. Environmental and safety regulations also apply, particularly for chemicals used in wastewater treatment or recycling processes. This grade is essential for producing everything from newsprint and packaging materials to high-quality specialty papers.
Technical-grade acetic acid is a clear, colorless liquid with a pungent vinegar-like odor. It is a less refined form of acetic acid primarily used for industrial and technical applications rather than food or pharmaceutical uses. Typically available in concentrations ranging from 80% to glacial (99-100%), it serves as a crucial chemical reagent, solvent, and intermediate in various industrial processes.
Calcined Kaolin is a fine, white to off-white powder produced by heating natural kaolin clay to high temperatures (typically between 600°C and 900°C) in a controlled process called calcination. This thermal treatment removes chemically bound water, changes the crystalline structure, and enhances the physical and chemical properties of kaolin. The resulting product exhibits increased brightness, hardness, and opacity, making it highly valuable as a functional additive and filler in numerous industrial applications. Calcined Kaolin is widely used in coatings, ceramics, plastics, rubber, paper, and paint industries to improve durability, brightness, and performance.
Calcium Carbonate (uncoated) is a naturally occurring mineral compound composed primarily of calcium, carbon, and oxygen with the chemical formula CaCO₃. It appears as a fine white powder or granules, widely used as a filler, pigment, and functional additive across various industries. The uncoated form means the calcium carbonate particles are not surface-treated, retaining their natural properties. It is valued for its high brightness, whiteness, and excellent compressibility. Uncoated calcium carbonate is used to enhance opacity, improve processing, and reduce costs in plastics, paints, coatings, adhesives, rubber, paper, and construction materials.
Calcium Carbonate Filler is a high-quality, uncoated ground calcium carbonate (GCC) specially engineered for use as a filler in polyethylene (PE) and other polyolefin resins. This grade of calcium carbonate is designed to enhance the physical and mechanical properties of plastics while providing cost-effective bulk and improved processing. It is a fine, white, odorless powder with excellent brightness, high purity, and uniform particle size distribution. Its use improves stiffness, impact resistance, dimensional stability, and surface finish in polyethylene applications such as films, sheets, pipes, and molded parts.
Calcium Carbonate Heavy is a high-density, finely ground, natural mineral primarily composed of calcium carbonate (CaCO₃). Known for its higher bulk density compared to regular grades, this filler is widely used in applications requiring enhanced weight, opacity, and strength. It is commonly employed as a functional filler and extender in industries such as plastics, paints, coatings, adhesives, rubber, paper, and construction materials. Its inert nature, whiteness, and particle size distribution make it suitable for improving mechanical properties and surface finish, while also offering cost efficiency by replacing more expensive raw materials.
Calcium Carbonate Light is a finely ground, low bulk density natural mineral composed primarily of calcium carbonate (CaCO₃). Compared to standard grades, it has a lower density and larger particle size distribution, making it suitable for applications where light weight and high brightness are important. This form is extensively used as a filler and extender in industries such as plastics, paints, rubber, paper, adhesives, and construction materials to improve opacity, brightness, and texture, while maintaining low weight and cost efficiency. Its chemical inertness and whiteness provide functional and aesthetic advantages across formulations.
Coated Calcium Carbonate is a fine, white, odorless powder consisting of naturally occurring ground calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) treated with a surface coating—typically stearic acid or other fatty acids—to enhance compatibility with non-polar matrices. This coating improves dispersion in plastic and rubber formulations, reduces moisture pickup, and enhances the physical properties of the final product. Compared to uncoated grades, coated calcium carbonate offers better hydrophobicity, improved flow properties, and stronger interfacial bonding in polymeric systems. It is widely used in plastics, rubber, paints, sealants, adhesives, paper, and more.
Eagle Homopolymer 510/50 50% is a high-purity homopolymer solution, typically referring to polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) or a similar water-soluble polymer supplied at 50% concentration. This product offers excellent film-forming, adhesive, thickening, and stabilizing properties, making it versatile in applications such as adhesives, textile sizing, paper coating, and packaging. The homopolymer’s controlled molecular weight and solution viscosity provide consistent performance and ease of handling. The 50% aqueous solution form facilitates easy mixing and incorporation into various formulations.
Eagle Styrene Acrylic 72/50 is a co-polymer emulsion consisting of styrene and acrylic monomers, offered at 50% active solids concentration in water. It appears as a milky-white, low-viscosity liquid with a mild odor. This polymer emulsion combines excellent film-forming properties, adhesion, and mechanical strength, making it widely used in coatings, adhesives, sealants, and functional binders across multiple industries.
Eagle VAM VEO VV50/55 is a water-based vinyl‑acetate–ethylene (VAM‑VEO) copolymer emulsion, formulated at 55% active solids. It presents as a milky-white, medium-viscosity liquid with a mild emulsion odor. This copolymer combines excellent film formation, adhesion, flexibility, and toughness, tailored for use in coatings, adhesives, sealants, and functional binders across multiple industries.
Kaolin is a naturally occurring, fine white clay mineral primarily composed of kaolinite. It features a soft, powdery texture and excellent absorbency. Kaolin is widely used across ceramics, paper, rubber, paint, and cosmetics industries due to its chemical inertness, whiteness, and plasticity. It acts as a filler, coating agent, and extender to enhance product quality and performance.
Titanium Dioxide (TiO₂) is a naturally occurring oxide of titanium known for its exceptional brightness and high refractive index. It is one of the most widely used white pigments in the world due to its excellent opacity, UV resistance, and chemical stability. Available in various crystalline forms—mainly rutile and anatase—it is used across numerous industries including paints, plastics, paper, cosmetics, and food. Industrial grades are often surface-treated to enhance performance in specific applications.
