Calcium carbonate is a widely used additive in adhesives and sealants for a number of beneficial reasons.
The addition of this natural compound can reduce the cost of production while improving processing characteristics and increasing the overall durability of the final product. By strengthening adhesives and sealants, calcium carbonate can help to improve the longevity of the finished work such as tiling for bathrooms and kitchens.
At Longcliffe, we produce ground limestone fillers for use in areas where high loadings are essential, such as ceramic tile adhesives (CTAs), grouts and joint fillers – sometimes comprising up to 80% of the formulation. Special care is given to control the size of particles, helping to provide a smooth, professional finish.
