Abstract

This article ascribes an exclusive overview of the synthesized aragonite
precipitated calcium carbonate and its applications in various fields. Special attention is
given on aragonite pcc is a new kind of functional filler in the paper industry and
automotive industry. Now a days, aragonite pcc synthesis is the most exciting and
important industrial application process. Aragonite pcc is an interesting and attractive
mineral for its unique characteristic features and enhances the preselected properties of
paper like opacity, density and brightness etc. The new rising acicular type of aragonite
pcc mineral, in particular is being used as filler for polyolefin resins and polypropylene
composites which are significantly used in automobile industry to manufacture light
weight vehicles.
