Abstract Precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) is an innovative product generated from lime that significantly offers various functional characteristics in fulfilling numerous market demand. PCC is produced by hydrating high-calcium quicklime resulting slurry so-called milk-of-lime and reacting the slurry with carbon dioxide (CO2) via carbonation process. The resulting PCC product is extremely white and typically has a uniform narrow particle size distribution. PCC is available in various crystal morphologies and sizes, which can be tailored to optimize performance in a specific application. The final properties of the PCC can be diversified by controlling processing parameters. In this current work, effect of liquid air pressure corresponding to feeding rate on a formation of PCC was investigated. In enhancing the product yield, the quicklime was initially converted into a solution containing calcium ion (Ca2+) using natural promoter agent. Subsequently, CO2 gas was continuously supplied into the Ca-rich ionic solution, thus inducing carbonation reaction to form PCC. This present work showed the carbonation time of producing PCC was effectively reduced as a function of feeding rate from 15 minutes at 10 psi to only 7 minutes at 50 psi. The PCC yield slightly increased from 19 g to 23 g with increasing the feeding rate from 10 psi to 50 psi, respectively. Morphologically, the PCC particles were dominated by rhombohedral structures at various feeding rates with an indication of intergrowth mechanism. This current finding signified the increasing feeding rate offered a significant reduction of PCC production time that might be efficiently applied by the industrial manufacturers.

The purpose of this work is to influence of CaO concentrations of 5.0 wt.% and 10.0 wt.%, slurry feeding rate of 200~400 /min, rotating rate of drum of 5,000 and 10,000 rpm, inlet and outlet temperature on the synthesis of Ca(OH)2 powder, and the synthesis of precipitated calcium carbonate by carbonation process using Ca(OH)2 prepared by spray drying method. As the feeding rate of slurry was increased, the particle size of Ca(OH)2 was decreased. Regardless of rotating rate of drum, when the concentration of CaO was 5.0 wt.% and 10.0 wt.%, the morphology of Ca(OH)2 showed spherical shape of 10~30 μm and 20~60 μm, respectively. The specific surface area of synthesized Ca(OH)2 was 27~30 m2/g. When the initial reaction temperature was 11 °C and 30 °C, the shape and particle size of precipitated calcium carbonate synthesized in the carbonation process showed the rectangular shape of 0.1~0.4 μm and the spindle shape of 0.5~1.0 μm, respectively.

The limestones was abundant in Tuban, East Java and have high calcium mineral content. Nevertheless, in the economic value, limestone have low price. Aim the research is prepare  Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC) by caustic soda method. In this method, calcium  was dissolved in HNO3 with different concentration (2, 4,6, 8 M). The Filtrate obtained then was added by Na2CO3 1 M to get PCC. As the results, The white PCC obtained with the highest rendement is 64,7% when added HNO3 6M. Analysis of functional group by FTIR show that there were strong absorption in the 844,76; 912,27 dan 1411,40 cm-1 that indicated carbonate group. Analysis of Cristallinity by XRD show that there were the peak characteristic of 2 on 29,50˚; 36,07˚ dan 39,50˚that representative calcite structure. SEM-EDX Analysis show that PCC have a mixing structure of calcite and vaterite.   Keywords: limestone, PCC, caustic soda

Salah satu material yang bersifat biokompatibel serta sering digunakan sebagai bahan dasar implan tulang dan gigi adalah trikalsium fosfat. Material ini dapat dihasilkan dari precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) batu kapur karena memiliki kandungan kalsium yang sangat tinggi. Metode yang digunakan untuk mensintesis trikalsium fosfat yaitu melalui pengendapan prekursor CaO dan H3PO4 dalam media etanol. Hasil sintesis dikarakterisasi menggunakan instrumen FT-IR, AAS, spektroskopi UV-Vis, dan XRD. Dari hasil analisis spektroskopi UV-Vis, rasio Ca/P dari hasil sintesis diperoleh sebesar 1,64. Uji FT-IR menunjukkan adanya gugus Ca-O pada bilangan gelombang sekitar 1400 cm-1 dan gugus PO43- pada bilangan gelombang 561 cm-1 dan 1041 cm-1. Uji XRD menunjukkan 3 puncak tertinggi dari β-TCP (trikalsium fosfat) yang sesuai dengan JCPDS no. 09-0169.One of the biocompatible materials that are often used as a basic materials for bone and dental implants is tricalcium phosphate. This material can be produced from precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) limestone because it has a very high calcium content. The method used to synthesize tricalcium phosphate was deposition of CaO and H3PO4 precursors in ethanol media. The results of the synthesis was characterized using FT-IR instruments, AAS, UV-Vis spectroscopy, and XRD. Based on the results of the UV-Vis spectroscopic analysis, the Ca/P ratio of the synthesis results obtained was 1.87. FT-IR test showed the presence of a Ca-O group at wave number 1400 cm-1 and PO43- group at wave numbers 561 cm-1 and 1041 cm-1. XRD test showed highest peaks of β-TCP (tricalcium phosphate) according to JCPDS no. 09-0169.

Cracking at the fold is a quality defect sometimes observed in coated paper and board. Although tensile and compressive stresses occur during folding, test methods to measure the compressive strength of a coating have not been available. Our objective was to develop a method to measure the compressive strength of a coating layer and to investigate how different mineral coatings behave under compression. We used the short-span compressive strength test (SCT) to measure the in-plane compressive strength of a free coating layer. Unsupported free coating films were prepared for the measurements. Results indicate that the SCT method was suitable for measuring the in-plane compressive strength of a coating layer. Coating color formulations containing different kaolin and calcium carbonate minerals were used to study the effect of pigment particles’ shape on the compressive and tensile strengths of coatings. Latices having two different glass transition temperatures were used. Results showed that pigment particle shape influenced the strength of a coating layer. Platy clay gave better strength than spherical or needle-shaped carbonate pigments. Compressive and tensile strength decreased as a function of the amount of calcium carbonate in the coating color, particularly with precipitated calcium carbonate. We also assessed the influence of styrene-butadiene binder on the compressive strength of the coating layer, which increased with the binder level. The compressive strength of the coating layer was about three times the tensile strength.

Transjøen, a lake in S.E. Norway investigated hydrographically from October 1969 to October 1971, consists of two basins, both of which are meromictic (lake with lower layer which does not participate in the periodic circulations). The lake has a large influx of groundwater of very varying chemical composition. The calcium content is high and precipitated calcium carbonate and electrolyte rich groundwater is assumed to be the main reason for the meromictic stability. The redox potentials of monimolimnion (the lower layer which does not participtate in the periodic circulation) are extremely low, but in spite of this fact the content of sulphate is high.
