The Effect of Carbonation Conditions on the Properties of Carbohydrate-Calcium Carbonate Hybrid Pigments

The influence of two polysaccharides, native corn starch and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), on the precipitation of calcium carbonate was examined by utilizing two different carbonation processes. In a batch process, carbon dioxide gas was fed through calcium hydroxide slurry at pH 11.5 to 12.0. The...
