It is known that both the main component of calcite and marble is карбонат кальция, but actually, calcite powder and marble powder have great difference in many aspects. Based on many years of powder processing experience of calcium from our company, I would make a simple analysis of the two powders, to see the differences between calcite powder and marble powder.
Difference between calcite powder and marble powder
1. Difference in appearance
The main difference between calcite powder and marble powder in appearance is color and luster. Calcite powder is softer in color, usually with a yellowish and reddish phase, while marble powder appears bluish-white or blue. Meanwhile, calcite powder has a higher transparency, while marble powder has a lower transparency.
2. Difference in processing efficiency
Calcite and marble are with different hardness. The hardness of calcite is about 3, and the hardness of marble is around 3-4. This means when using grinding equipment of the same power, processing calcite would be more efficient than processing marble.
3. Difference in powder performance
Because crystal cleavage of calcite is better than marble, after being ground, the performance of dispersion, fluidity, particle size distribution and oil absorption value are all better than those of marble.
4. Difference in application effect
Take plastic industry as an example: although both calcite powder and marble powder have application in plastic products, plastics filled with calcite powder have soft color, good hiding power, and good physical and mechanical properties; while products filled with marble powder perform a little worse in these aspects.
Calcite and marble are both common minerals in nature, and they are widely used in fields of construction and decoration, etc. In practical applications, through crushing and grinding, they can improve performance, meet processing needs, and expand application areas.
