Ground Calcium Carbonate is used in paper and plastic fillers, coatings and paints. It is also used in cement, is converted to quick-lime (calcium oxide) and slaked lime (calcium hydroxide). Ground calcium carbonate is slightly basic and can be used to neutralize combustion vapors or increase the pH in water or soils.Coated calcium carbonate powder is calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) that has been surface-treated, usually with stearic acid or other coating agents, to improve its dispersion, flowability, and compatibility with plastics, polymers, and other materials.

The coating forms a thin layer on each particle, making the powder more hydrophobic (water-repellent) and improving its performance in various industrial applications.
