nanometer calcium carbonate

   This Nanometer Calcium Carbonate (NCC) product has been designed for use as a reinforcing additive in plastics such as PP and PE.

    Unlike normal micron sized additives, which have a detrimental effect on the impact strength of the polymers, NCC-201 results in a significant improvement in the impact strength, along with increases in flexural modulus and tensile strength.

    NCC-201 can be used to partially replace existing reinforcing additives such as CPE and existing elastomeric reinforcing agents used in PP, resulting in lower formulation costs.

    NCC-201 can be used in its powder form but is best introduced in the form of a masterbatch for enhanced dispersion. A good dispersion of the NCC in the matrix is needed to realize the full benefits of using the NCC.
