Calcium Carbonate Selection for Wall Putty

If you formulate wall putty, select calcium carbonate for application feel, water demand, finish and sanding rather than mesh alone.

Relia's catalogue includes carbonate candidates with different particle descriptions.

A Factory Proposal for Your Application

Relia manufactures ground, precipitated and selected surface-coated calcium carbonate grades in China through its own factories.

We can review your putty filler enquiry with the intended substrate, binder and application thickness. Give us the current powder and the changes you want to investigate. The shortlist should keep particle data and grade identity clear, so your applicator or production trial can compare a specific material change.

Application before Fineness

Textured coatings and construction formulations can need a different particle window from a smooth high-gloss paint. Our 600 mesh and 800 mesh GCC listings sit within a broader 600–3000 mesh range. We start with the surface and application requirement before selecting a grade to evaluate.

A Putty Panel Comparison

Use a representative substrate and the intended application method. Record workability, visible texture, coverage and the finished properties your coating needs. If a grade changes the water or binder demand, keep that formulation adjustment visible so the comparison remains useful for purchasing.

Manufacturing and grade controls

Particle Preparation and Surface Condition

Classification sets the distribution entering the putty, including the coarse particles that may influence finish. More fine material can also change wetting and water demand. Retain the complete distribution and the preparation conditions, then compare spread, drying, surface and sanding on panels rather than inferring the result from a larger mesh number.

  • GCC: dry and wet routes

    Relia uses both dry- and wet-grinding routes for GCC. Grinding and classification are connected to the selected powder's particle specification.

  • PCC: crystal formation

    Relia produces PCC through calcination, slaking and carbonation. The precipitation route forms new particles rather than only grinding the starting mineral.

  • Selected surface-coated grades

    Relia applies surface coating to selected carbonate grades. The actual treatment and intended application remain part of the grade discussion.

  • Defined carbonate checks

    Routine batch checks cover whiteness, moisture and purity. Particle size and oil absorption are checked according to the grade or order requirements.

Distribution
Retain average size, D50 and D97 as their actual reported measurements.
Surface
Connect a treatment declaration with the application and absorption or wetting evidence.
Identity
Keep the selected grade and relevant method with the sample comparison.
GCC and PCC follow separate production routes. Surface treatment and inspection requirements are connected to the selected grade.

A Purchase Specification with Purpose

The approved powder and panel reference belong together. We discuss repeat supply against that record and the agreed grading requirements. Changes that affect application or sanding have a clear point of comparison.
