Vertal® AF is a general-purpose talc/carbonate mineral additive, suitable for a broad range of applications, including polymers, ceramics, roofing, and asphalt. The benefits of Vertal® AF include improved dimensional stability, cross-flow mechanical performance, and flexural stiffness. It improves wet out of other additives and offers enhanced processability, improved crack and shrink resistance, and permeability reduction. The coarse particle size of Vertal® AF allows low dust, high bulk density, and minimum effects on viscosity of the melt/liquid media/carrier.

VANSIL® W-30 Wollastonite is a medium fineness (4 Hegman fineness) low aspect ratio grade of wollastonite that can be used as a general-purpose mineral filler in a wide range of liquid coatings and powder coatings. It is used as a TiO2 spacer and extender. The naturally high pH of wollastonite helps to buffer latex paints and coatings, which contributes to improved corrosion resistance and weathering. This also extends in-can stability and prolongs the lifetime of the coating.

DIXIE CLAY® Filler is an air-floated fine particle size kaolin clay that can be used as a reinforcing filler in all types of coatings, adhesives, elastomers and latexes.

VANSIL® W-50 Wollastonite is the finest of the low aspect ratio grades of VANSIL (6+ Hegman fineness). This grade is suitable for liquid industrial and corrosion resistant coatings, powder coatings and semi-gloss architectural coatings. In powder coatings, this grade is desirable for smoother films and improved gloss. The naturally high pH of wollastonite helps to buffer latex paints and coatings, which contributes to improved corrosion resistance and weathering. This also extends in-can stability and prolongs the lifetime of the coating.

Piq-White Ultra Premium Filler 30 is fine sized dry pulverized carbonate filler. Material is available in 50 lb. paper bags, palletized and stretch-wrapped, 1500 lb. mini bulk bags or in bulk. Piqua Minerals fillers are available with various average particle sizing for other filler applications.

SILMIKRON® is for industrial use, mighty, workable silica sand deposits are of decisive importance. Nevertheless, chemical purity and constancy are not enough in order to apply silica directly as a raw material. In Quarzwerke plants silica sands are thoroughly prepared. The raw material has to pass exten-sive cleaning-, classification-, drying- and iron-free grinding processes in order to produce silica sands, flours and powders. For the production of silica flours and -powders with a defined grain size distribution separation processes are required in addition to iron-free grinding. Quarzwerke are able to produce silica powders with grain sizes down to 1 μm due to a fine-tuned combination of grind- and classification technology. Another refining step is the surface-treatment with silanes or silan-based substances which can be adjusted to the respective application.

PIQ-White Select Filler 100 is a fine sized dry pulverized carbonate filler. Piqua Minerals fillers are available with various average particle sizing for other filler applications.

Sil-cell® 42 has been found to be cost effective in the manufacturing of joint compounds, adhesives, auto body putty, cultured marble, wall patching compounds, stucco, ready mix gypsum plasters, resins, plastics and a variety of other composites. It can also be treated with unique proprietary surface coatings to modify the particle’s surface. In both organic and inorganic composites, these coupling agents improve adhesion.

Dolomite RF 240# is a double carbonate of Magnesium and Calcium (CaCO3. MgCO3) Theoretically, it contains 21.7 MgO and 30.4 % CaCO3 and the remaining being CO2. How ever in nature much variation takes place in the composition. It is sedimentary origin and is supposed to have been formed due to alteration of Calcium Carbonate sediments or rocks, by seawater rich in magnesia.
