Calcium Carbonate for Waterborne Interior Paints

If you make waterborne interior paint, buy calcium carbonate for the paint balance you need: opacity, viscosity, application and film properties.

Relia's carbonate candidates can be compared using real particle and absorption data.

Manufacturing Support for This Purchase

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

Our calcium carbonate manufacturing focus provides the starting range for this paint enquiry. Send us the binder system, current filler and the optical or application limits that matter. We can discuss the proposed grade and its reporting basis while your paint panels establish the formulation-specific result.

The Paint You Want to Make

An interior-paint enquiry can begin with an 800 mesh entry, a 1250 mesh entry and a finer XM-300 proposal. The labels organise the catalogue, but the trial should compare dispersed particles and the actual paint. We keep coverage, application and the accepted finish together when narrowing the grade.

Grade information and how to use it
Review areaListed data and acceptance basisUse in your selection
800 mesh · 6537The listing states 96% purity for paint and coating filler assessment. Confirm the actual distribution and coarse residue.Use the same particle measurement basis, then review dispersion and the result in your process.
1250 mesh · 6535A 96% purity GCC entry for paper and coating enquiries. Mesh is not a D50 measurement.Use the same particle measurement basis, then review dispersion and the result in your process.
XM-300 · 6003The listing gives 1.5 micron average size and D97 3.8 micron, with whiteness 97%. Retain the measurement basis.Use the same particle measurement basis, then review dispersion and the result in your process.

Your trial and acceptance

A Fair Paint Comparison

Compare the candidates at the intended paint formulation and application conditions. Evaluate dispersed fineness, viscosity, opacity and the required film properties together. A finer catalogue designation can change the mixing and binder-demand discussion; it does not establish a finished-paint improvement on its own.

Manufacturing and grade controls

Particle Preparation and Surface Condition

Grinding and classification change the particle population that occupies space in the coating. Finer particles also change the surface that must be wetted, so fineness alone is not a complete buying rule. Connect distribution and absorption data to dispersion, pigment volume and film conditions before drawing conclusions about opacity or usable formulation cost.

  • 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.

From sample to supply

A Grade for Repeat Paint Batches

The accepted paint trial becomes the reference for the filler specification. We keep the grade identity and batch information with that proposal. Formulation or processing changes can then be reviewed against a known result.

REFINE YOUR SELECTION
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.

CHECK THE EVIDENCE
Extender Trials for TiO2 Efficiency in White Paint

If you want to use TiO2 more efficiently in white paint, an extender is a trial variable rather than a direct replacement for hiding pigment.

PREPARE THE NEXT STEP
Low-Oil-Demand Fillers for High-Solids Industrial Coatings

If a high-solids coating becomes too viscous as filler loading rises, compare wetting and particle behaviour in the complete binder system.
