Calcium Carbonate for Ceramics

Calcium carbonate plays a pivotal role in the production of ceramics, serving as a cost-effective source of calcium oxide. This essential component acts as a melting agent at high temperatures, enhancing the mechanical and chemical strength of the glass body while minimizing shrinkage during firing. In ceramic glazes, calcium carbonate serves as the primary source of calcium and functions as a flux at elevated temperatures, contributing to the hardness and durability of the final product. When used in larger quantities, it creates a matte effect and enhances the finish of salt glaze ware by developing a thicker, more robust surface.

Ultra Limited for Industrial Development offers a diverse range of calcium carbonate grades tailored to the specific needs of the ceramics industry. These solutions provide an ideal balance between performance and cost, ensuring that ceramic manufacturers achieve their production targets efficiently and economically.
