Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC) Supplier Malaysia
- Also known as
- PCC
- Precipitated Chalk
Precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) is a manufactured fine calcium carbonate powder used where controlled particle and surface properties are important. ChemTrade handles Malaysian enquiries for PCC matched to a stated particle size, surface treatment, purity and application specification.
Commercial options include uncoated PCC, surface-treated grades and application-specific high-purity material. Particle size, surface area, bulk density, brightness, moisture, pH and coating can differ substantially between grades.
PCC is used in paper filling and coating, plastics and masterbatch, paint and coatings, rubber, adhesives and sealants. It is deliberately kept separate from ground calcium carbonate or GCC; one product's mesh, coating, production method or particle specification must not be assumed for the other.
Send the required PCC grade, particle and coating specification, application, quantity and delivery location. Availability, packing and documentation are confirmed with the quotation.

Precipitated Calcium Carbonate grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Uncoated precipitated calcium carbonate | fine white powder | — | Controlled filler and functional mineral for paper, coatings, plastics, rubber and sealant formulations. | Confirm the required particle specification and pack format with the quotation. |
| Surface-treated PCC | treated fine powder | — | Polymer, rubber, adhesive and sealant systems requiring improved dispersion or compatibility. | Confirm the surface treatment and pack format with the quotation. |
| High-purity or application-specific PCC | fine white powder | — | Buyer-qualified food, pharmaceutical or specialised industrial applications requiring a defined purity and particle profile. | Confirm the required grade and pack format with the quotation. |

Safety and handling
Store sealed and dry off the floor. Control dust during powder handling and follow the safety information for the quoted grade.
Common questions about precipitated calcium carbonate
What is precipitated calcium carbonate used for?
PCC is used as a controlled filler or functional mineral in paper, plastics, coatings, rubber, adhesives, sealants and selected high-purity applications.
Is PCC the same as ground calcium carbonate?
No. PCC is manufactured by precipitation, while GCC is mechanically ground mineral. Their particle and surface specifications are not interchangeable.
Are coated and uncoated PCC interchangeable?
Not automatically. Surface treatment affects dispersion and compatibility, particularly in polymers, rubber, adhesives and sealants.
Which PCC specifications matter?
Particle size, surface area, bulk density, brightness, moisture, pH, coating and purity are common quotation details.
Can packing and documents be confirmed?
Yes. Include the preferred pack and document requirements. Available options are confirmed for the quoted PCC grade.
What should I send for a quotation?
Send the PCC grade, particle and coating specification, application, quantity and delivery location, plus any purity or brightness limits.
