Calcined Kaolin
$ 1.20
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
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 Sulphate
Calcium Sulphate is an inorganic compound composed of calcium, sulfur, and oxygen, commonly found in two forms: dihydrate (gypsum, CaSO4·2H2O) and anhydrous (CaSO4). It appears as a white or off-white crystalline powder or granules with low solubility in water. Calcium Sulphate is widely used in construction, agriculture, pharmaceuticals, food industry, and various industrial applications. It acts as a filler, hardening agent, and drying agent due to its physical and chemical properties. The dihydrate form (gypsum) is notable for use in plaster and cement, while the anhydrous form is often used as a drying agent and in refractory materials.
Candelilla Wax
Candelilla Wax is a natural vegetable wax derived from the leaves of the Euphorbia cerifera shrub, native to northern Mexico and the southwestern United States. It appears as a hard, brittle, light yellow to brown wax with a mild, characteristic odor. This wax is valued for its high melting point, gloss-enhancing properties, and excellent binding capabilities. It is widely used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, food, and industrial applications as a vegan alternative to beeswax. Its film-forming, emollient, and stabilizing attributes make it a multifunctional ingredient across several industries.
Coated Calcium Carbonate
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.
Silicon Dioxide
Silicon Dioxide (SiO₂), commonly known as silica, is a naturally occurring inorganic compound found abundantly in the Earth’s crust. In its refined, powdered form, it is used as an anti-caking agent, filler, absorbent, and thickener across a wide range of industries. It is odorless, tasteless, chemically inert, and stable under normal conditions. Packaged in 10kg units, silicon dioxide is highly versatile and widely accepted for use in food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and industrial applications.
Sodium Sulphate Anhydrous
Sodium Sulphate Anhydrous (Na₂SO₄) is a white crystalline powder, odorless and highly soluble in water. Unlike the decahydrate form (Glauber's salt), this anhydrous grade contains minimal water content, making it ideal for industrial applications requiring low moisture levels. Supplied in 25kg packaging, it is widely used as a filler, drying agent, and raw material in detergents, glass manufacturing, pulp and paper, and chemical synthesis. Its excellent stability, non-hygroscopic nature, and cost-effectiveness make it an essential bulk chemical.
Xysil Fumed Silica
Xysil Fumed Silica is a high-purity fumed silica produced through flame hydrolysis of silicon tetrachloride. It is an ultra-fine, amorphous, white powder with a very high surface area and low bulk density. Xysil 200 is widely used as a reinforcing filler, thickening agent, anti-caking agent, and rheology modifier in various industrial applications. Its unique physical properties improve the mechanical strength, viscosity, and stability of formulated products.
