Aluminium hydroxide
Aluminium hydroxide is a chemical compound with the formula Al(OH)3. It is an inorganic compound that is commonly used as an antacid to neutralize excess stomach acid, as well as a component in the manufacture of various products, such as ceramics, paper, and cosmetics. It is a white, powdery substance that is insoluble in water and has a low toxicity. When heated, it decomposes to produce aluminium oxide, or alumina, which is used in the production of aluminium metal.
Aluminium silicate
Aluminium silicate is a compound made up of aluminium, silicon, and oxygen, with the chemical formula Al2SiO5. It is also known as kaolin, a naturally occurring clay mineral that is widely used in a variety of industrial applications. Aluminium silicate is valued for its high temperature resistance, low thermal expansion, and good electrical insulation properties, which make it useful in the manufacturing of ceramics, refractory materials, and insulators. It can also be used as a filler in paper, paint, and plastics.
Aluminum Fine Powder
Aluminum fine powder is a lightweight, highly reactive silvery-white powder valued for its excellent thermal and electrical conductivity, as well as its reflective properties. Primarily used in pyrotechnics to create bright flashes and sparks in fireworks and explosives, it also plays a crucial role in metallurgy for producing alloys and additive manufacturing (3D printing). In industrial applications, it serves as a reducing agent in chemical processes and generates hydrogen for fuel research. The powder is widely incorporated into metallic paints and coatings for reflective finishes, conductive pastes for electronics, and specialty construction materials like aerated concrete. Available in micron to nano-sized particles, aluminum fine powder requires careful handling due to its flammability and reactive nature with water or acids. Its versatility extends to cosmetics, where ultra-fine grades provide shimmer in nail polishes and eye shadows, demonstrating its broad utility across multiple high-tech and traditional industries.
Calcium carbonate (Coated)
Calcium Carbonate (coated) refers to a form of calcium carbonate in which the individual particles of the mineral are coated or encapsulated with a layer of a different material. This layer can be composed of various substances, such as stearic acid, fatty acids, or other polymers. The purpose of the coating is to modify the surface properties of the calcium carbonate particles, such as their hydrophobicity or compatibility with other materials, making them more suitable for specific applications. Coated calcium carbonate is widely used in industries such as plastics, paper, paints, and coatings, where it can improve the properties of the final product, such as brightness, whiteness, and durability.
Calcium Carbonate (uncoated)
Calcium Carbonate (uncoated)Â refers to a natural mineral substance that is composed of calcium carbonate without any additional coatings or surface treatments. It is a white, powdery material that is commonly used in various industrial applications, including the manufacture of paper, paints, plastics, and rubber products, as well as in construction, agriculture, and the food and pharmaceutical industries. Uncoated calcium carbonate is typically mined from natural deposits of limestone or chalk and is often ground into fine particles to achieve the desired particle size and purity for specific applications
