Calcium hydroxide
Calcium hydroxide, commonly known as slaked lime or hydrated lime, is a white powder formed by hydrating quicklime. It is widely used in various industries for applications such as water treatment, soil stabilization, and as a key ingredient in cement and mortar due to its ability to react with acids and enhance alkalinity.

CLIRIK offers a comprehensive range of calcium hydroxide crushing and grinding systems. Our technology is designed to optimize your production efficiency, significantly reduce specific energy consumption, and meet the most stringent manufacturing requirements for various calcium hydroxide-based products.

Material Introduction
Calcium hydroxide, commonly known as slaked lime or hydrated lime, is a colorless crystal or white powder with the chemical formula Ca(OH)₂. It is produced through the controlled hydration of calcium oxide. It is characterized by its strong alkalinity and relatively low solubility in water, which decreases as temperature rises.
Physically, calcium hydroxide is soft and non-abrasive, allowing it to be processed into exceptionally fine, uniform powders. Chemically, it is highly reactive, readily absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to form calcium carbonate and reacting vigorously with various acids. In industrial settings, its performance is defined by its chemical purity and particle size, which directly influence its rate of reaction and absorption capacity. Its ability to act as a potent flocculant and pH regulator makes it a versatile tool in modern engineering and chemical manufacturing.

Ground Calcium Carbonate (GCC)
Ground Calcium Carbonate (GCC) is produced by the mechanical pulverization of natural minerals like limestone or marble. Since it involves no chemical transformation, it retains the mineral’s original stability but features an irregular, fragmented structure.

Key Properties: High density, low oil absorption, and excellent flowability.

Industrial Value: Used as a “functional filler” in plastics, rubber, and coatings. It increases volume and hardness while allowing high loading levels to significantly reduce production costs.

Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC)
Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC), or light calcium carbonate, is a synthetic compound produced through a chemical carbonation process. By calcining limestone and reacting it with CO₂, manufacturers can precisely control the particle morphology to create specific shapes like spindles, spheres, or needles.

Key Properties: Ultra-high whiteness, narrow particle size distribution, and high sedimentation volume.

Industrial Value: Its microporous structure and large specific surface area make it ideal for high-end paper, specialized paints, and pharmaceuticals requiring reinforcement and superior brightness.
