DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Asia-Pacific Calcium Carbonate Market 2020-2026" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

According to this report the Asia Pacific calcium carbonate market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.1% during the forecast period.

The growing plastics and paper and coatings industry is the major factor accelerating the market growth. China is the key manufacturer of plastics, followed by Europe and NAFTA. In 2017, Asia accounted for more than 45.0% of the global plastics production. This leads to an increasing demand for calcium carbonate as one of the renowned mineral fillers utilized in the plastics industry. Calcium carbonate is extensively available across the globe, compatible with a comprehensive spectrum of polymer resins, and is easier to grind or decrease to a particular particle size, as well as it is cost-effective.

It is used as an additive in plastic compounds that supports to reduce surface energy and offers surface gloss and opacity, which improves surface finish. Additionally, when the particle size is carefully controlled, calcium carbonate supports to increase both flexural modulus (stiffness) and impact strength. It may be used with several thermoplastic resins. Polypropylene compounds are normally filled with calcium carbonate to enhance rigidity, which is an essential need for operations at high temperatures. In polyvinyl chloride (PVC), calcium carbonate is utilized with flexible compounds including tubing, latex gloves, trash bags, wire and cable insulation, and in rigid compounds including window profiles, extruded pipes, and conduits.

The market is segmented based on the type and end-user industry. Based on type, the market is segmented into ground calcium carbonate and precipitated calcium carbonate. Ground calcium carbonates (GCC) are extensively used as fillers in adhesives and sealants, paper, paints and coatings, plastics, and in the production of rubber. GCC is usually the prime ingredient of ceramic tile adhesives (CTA's), sealants, and fillers, often up to 80% of the formulation. It has long been utilized as a filler in materials such as roofing felt, asphalt, and plasters. GCC is utilized to bulk out or extend the polymers and resins in paints. Therefore, the growing paints and coatings industry and plastics industry is in turn, accelerating the adoption of GCC in the region. Based on the end-user industry, the market is segmented into paper, adhesives and sealants, plastics, paints and coatings, construction, and others.
