1. Product Description & Characteristics

AdCol CP-CA80-PE is an advanced mineral modifier compound containing 80% surface-treated, ultra-fine calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) dispersed in a specialty virgin LLDPE/PP carrier matrix. Engineered to lower formulation costs, increase thermal conductivity (reducing cooling cycle times), enhance anti-blocking characteristics, and improve dimensional stability and tensile modulus in polyolefin film and moulding applications.
