Calcium silicate (CaSiO3) Use and Manufacturing
Calcium silicate is widely used as a heat-insulating material and fireproof material in building materials. Calcium silicate is used as a filler in plastics, rubbers and coatings to improve the mechanical properties and thermal stability of materials. As an anti-caking agent, Calcium silicate is used to prevent powdered foods from caking. Calcium silicate can also be used in wastewater treatment and adsorb heavy metal ions. As a pharmaceutical excipient, Calcium silicate can control the release rate of drugs.
