Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Calcium Carbonate (CaCO₃) for Inks in inks and pigments applications

CaCO₃ acts as a multifunctional additive improving rheology, enhancing opacity, speeding drying, reducing TiO₂ usage, and optimizing overall formulation cost.

Coated grades like Vaporlite 90 CTD and OT-1T are ideal for gravure inks, offering fine particle size, superior dispersion, and excellent film uniformity.

Its controlled particle geometry creates micro-smooth ink layers, improves dot definition, and enhances halftone sharpness, resulting in gloss improvement up to 8–12%.

Yes, CaCO₃ acts as a pigment spacer, maximizing light scattering efficiency of TiO₂ particles, enabling cost-effective partial TiO₂ reduction without sacrificing opacity.

Yes, both coated and uncoated grades are available to suit water-based, solvent-based, and hybrid printing ink systems.
