Hubercarb® W3

Generic Family: Filler / Reinforcement -- Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3)Supplied by: Huber Engineered Materials
Hubercarb® W3 is a 4-micron calcium carbonate produced in Quincy, IL containing an extremely low level of crystalline silica content.

Hubercarb® W Series Calcium Carbonate has a purity level of 99.3% and is mined from a world-class limestone deposit processed in Quincy, Illinois. Products include ultra-fine and fine median particle sizes. Three of the W Series grades have been surface-modified to enhance end-use performance. The W Series products are ideal for applications that require high-filler loadings, low moisture content and silica content below detectable levels. The W Series is low in trace metals like iron, which can promote undesirable degradation in some polymer systems. The unique particle shape and particle size distribution lend the W Series products to low viscosity at high-filler loadings, improved surface finish in molded parts, reduced part shrinkage and part breakage, while saving on expensive equipment repair costs.
