Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for manufacturing coated substrates by providing a substrate, providing at least one mineral material, providing a polysaccharide material comprising one or more polysaccharides, coating the substrate with the at least one mineral material, and coating the resulting pre-coat layer of mineral material with the gel comprising one or more polysaccharides, as well as the coated substrate obtained by this process and its use.
Abstract:
Use of 2-((1-methylpropyl)amino)ethanol as an additive in an aqueous suspension, containing from 25 to 62 vol. % of at least one calcium carbonate-comprising material, wherein the use provides improved stability with regard to the conductivity of the suspension.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for reducing the amount of organic components in water, wherein a surface-reacted naturalcalcium carbonate and a hydrophobic adsorbent, selected from the group consisting of talc, hydrophobised calcium carbonate, hydrophobised bentonite, hydrophobised kaolinite, hydrophobised glass, or any mixture thereof, are brought into contact with the water to be purified, the surface-reacted natural calcium carbonate being the reaction product of a naturalcalcium carbonate with an acid and carbon dioxide, which is formed in situ by the acid treatment and/or supplied externally, and the surface-reacted natural calcium carbonate being prepared as an aqueous suspension having a pH of greater than 6.0, measured at 20°C.
Abstract:
The present invention concerns an anti-deposit additive and a deposit and/or corrosion reducing aqueous slurry containing a calcium carbonate containing material. In particular, the present invention is directed to the use of at least one anionically charged comb polymer as an anti-deposit agent in an aqueous slurry comprising a calcium carbonate containing material.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a process for preparing self-binding pigment particle suspensions, to a self-binding pigment particle suspension as well as to a paper product comprising self-binding pigment particles and to the use of the self-binding pigment particle suspension as filler material.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to surface-mineralized organic fibers comprising organic fibers having a length in the millimeter range, the surface of which is at least partially coated with finely divided alkaline earth carbonate nanoparticles by means of binders based on copolymers comprising as monomers one or more dicarboxylic acids and one or more monomers from the group of diamines, triamines, dialkanolamines or trialkanolamines and epichlorohydrin, a method for producing such surface-mineralized organic fibers, aqueous slurries thereof, their use in papermaking, in surface finishing of paper, plastic, cement and clay surfaces, in paints and varnishes and the use of the inventive binders for coating the organic fibers with nano alkaline earth carbonates.
Abstract:
The present invention refers to a process for the preparation of an aqueous solution comprising at least one earth alkali hydrogen carbonate and its uses. The process may be carried out in a reactor system comprising a tank (1) equipped with a stirrer (2), at least one filtering device (4) and a grinding device (18).
Abstract:
The present invention concerns a calcium carbonate containing material having increased bulk density at equal or improved flowability, and a method of producing such a material. The inventive process comprises the step of contacting a calcium carbonate containing mineral powder with a solution or emulsion or dispersion of a binder.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the use of surface modified calcium carbonate as a filler in adhesives, sealants, and/or caulks, wherein the surface modified calcium carbonate is a mineral pigment product formed in situ by the double and/or multiple reaction between a calcium carbonate and the reaction product or products of the said carbonate with gaseous CO 2 formed in situ and/or coming from an external supply, and the reaction product or products of the said carbonate with one or more moderately strong to strong H 3 O + ion donors, and at least one aluminium silicate and/or at least one synthetic silica and/or at least one calcium silicate and/or at least one silicate of a monovalent salt and/or at least one aluminium hydroxide and/or at least one sodium and/or potassium aluminate. It further relates to method of producing adhesives, sealants, and/or caulks comprising surface modified calcium carbonate, as well as to the adhesives, sealants, and/or caulks obtained by this process.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for preparing an aqueous suspension of dispersed calcium carbonate, wherein the resulting coating of said suspension provides opaque properties or has a specific light scattering coefficient S.
